Some good info on poop eating. I came to much the same conclusions working with our Binti. It was a combination of nutrition, supplements (vit. A, B, peat water, probiotics) and the right attention during walks. In the seasonal changes (especially summer-autumn and winter-spring) she needs more support for her immune system - she can start to eat poop again literally from one day to the next. Then I know it is time to supplement. http://healthypets.mercola.com/sites/healthypets/archive/2017/01/18/dog-eating-poop.aspx?utm_source=petsnl&utm_medium=email&utm_content=art1&utm_campaign=20170118Z2&et_cid=DM131216&et_rid=1846775050

Like Pat, I rotate foods, give them some of most things I eat (just a bite or 2).. so changing foods fast isn't an issue. Right now, yes do it slowly. Origen is good. And yeah to the pumpkin suggestion.. a few spoons can help help firm up the stools.

Hi Shelley – Poppy did the same when she was a puppy with her own and the other dogs offerings but she has grown out of it now with the exception of rabbit droppings and as Scott says cat droppings which most dogs seem to find irresistible!. We have been feeding Royal Canin with no problems, so it may not be down to that. It may be a family trait! Steve.

Topper loves to eat dirt and he gets a good diet and a vitamin/mineral supplement from the vet. I think he likes the taste!

Totally unrelated. Jabari, I can't tell you how it warms my heart to hear "aloha" and "mahalo". Oh warm and fuzzies :) My family is still on Maui as my little sis is only in high school. Our Riley is getting the big snip in probably about 10 days. Poor little guy. I think it's the non-laser kind. We haven't had a comprehensive exam w/ the new vet yet but she comes highly recommended from a breeder out here. I just wish she accepted AKC's comped vet visit certificate you get for registering :/
