Is the owner taking the dog out on-leash to poop and then redirecting away from the poop instantly? For example, redirecting could mean immediate obedience (marker) commands complete with fabulous rewards. I once adopted a dog who already had a coprophagia habit, and a few weeks of doing the above turned her around so that the minute she pooped, she looked up at me eagerly, waiting for an ob command and the wonderful reward that she knew would come on compliance.
