...Cat Poo... Well at least I think that's what it is! Mum thought it might be fox poo but I'm not convinced...

Either way, Izzy loves the horrid stuff and I don't know what to do to stop her eating it! Everytime I/she find's some, I pick it up straight away and give her a firm "NO", but that doens't stop her finding more! We've gone 2 days now without finding some but I know as soon as she does she's going to want to eat it! Disgusting labrabor!

I've done a bit of surfing and it seems to be a problem with no real solution? I guess make sure she recalls everytime without question or what she's sniffing at the time??

hi,

cat poop, rabbit poop, horse poop, fox poop, their own poop .... all provides gorgeous feast for wee greedy poopies lol !!!

yours just eats it - be thankful, mine roll in it MUCH more smelly euwwwwwww !!!

yep - a recall would do it for now, then re: what i said about her leash walking - a "leaveit" (for something she hasnt reached yet but is looking longingly at) or a "dead" (for something mid-chew) mmmmmm scrummy !!!

Oh yeah she's found fox poo on the paddock too... and rolled in it...

She found out that it was a lot of fun... She also found out that bath time isn't nearly as much fun as the fox poo...

Cass is a bugger for rolling in fox poo. I have to watch her like a hawk in the park, i can usually stop her just as she is about to roll by shouting 'NO', then she changes her mind and does a little wee on it instead. lol

I have always done this with the beardies sometimes one will have a roll behind my back, none of my pekes have even done it they don't eat unless I give it to them and they would never roll in anything far to royal for that  ;D
