How to stop my yorkie puppy from eating his poop?

by Aneta
(London)

Question:

Hi, I have a 9 weeks male puppy. He eats his poop.

Why does he eat his poop? How can I stop him from doing it? I clean straight away, but it’s just few seconds for that happen.

I am giving him royal canin for mini puppies and probiotic treats. I have heard that a pineapple may help, but will that affect his digestion? Is he not too young to eat pineapple?
Thanks.

Answer:

Hi Aneta,

We have covered this here. You may want to give it a try?

The use of pineapple relates to a Bromelain deficiency in the diet, but it sounds like you are feeding your dog well?

I don’t see any harm in trying a small piece or 2 each day and see if there is any improvement. This should be relatively inexpensive.
