It is pretty common for Basenjis to do this as lvoss and jazzysmom have noted…... doesn't have anything to do with being intact....

Very common behavior. I have had some that prefer to drink it "right from the faucet" of a male who is lifting his leg. Kind of gross but not harmful in any way.

Dallas does that all the time! I never know anymore when he pees in his crate except for his damp paws because he licks it all up. I always wondered why he did that…
Thanks for posting this Jason!

This is just part of their natural tendency towards neatness, I suspect.
On the other hand, big EWWWWW - squeamish people, stop now -
We have a poop eater - she will literally follow her running mate around when he goes…

Does this eating of stool cause any intestinal issues for the dog who dines?

if the stool passer has worms or some other 'icky bug' yes.

Ruby pooped in her crate once and then proceeded to eat it to "clean it up". The resulting vomit mixed with poop was something I'll never forget. :eek:

Yeiks! my husband says he will never go to dinner with my doggie friend because that is considered "dinner table" conversation.
He prefers to sit with the horrified listeners at the other tables…
