My dog is eating my other dogs' poop. Should I change his food? Do you you recommend any supplement or vitamin that will stop this terrible habbit?

Full Question:
Cindy,

I need help with my 3 years old pit bull that just wont quit eating our 4 other dogs poop. I can't get outside fast enough to pick it up. While I'm picking one dogs up he's eating another's. I feed Natural balance kibble and canned. Should I change food? Do you recommend any supplement or vitamin that will stop this terrible habit? I have tried two different pills from our vet and he didn't miss a beat and continued to consume poop.

HELP
Cindy

I’d recommend having the vet do a pancreatic enzyme test on your dog, especially if he’s the only one who is eating poop. He may have a medical problem. Ask your vet to run a TLI test.

You may also want to try digestive enzymes or S.E.P.

Both of these products will need to be given to ALL your dogs in order for it to make a difference(since he’s eating their poop).
