Recently my dog started eating other dog's or cat's poop, he has never done this before. Do you think it's related to raw food?

Full Question:
Hi,

I have been feeding my 11 year old German Shepard raw food for about a year and a half. He is doing great on it. Recently he started eating other dog's or cat's poop, he has never done this before. Do you think it's related to raw food? I also give him veg. and vitamins with his food. He gets one and a half pounds of raw chicken a day.

Thank You,
Russ

He may be craving some nutrient that is lacking in the diet you are feeding him.

I’d make sure to rotate the variety of meats he gets fed. You could also try adding digestive enzymes.

It won’t hurt and may help.
