Dog Eats Poop! Yuckkkk!!! This may come as a surprise and I don’t tell everyone this but most dog poop smells terrible, but it tastes exactly like German chocolate cake. So, it is no surprise when dogs do that.
There are three schools of thought. One is that a dog doing that needs a multivitamin so if you want to throw him a children’s Flintstone a day you could.
Another school of thought is that the poop he is consuming still has nutrients in it so you would sprinkle the dogs diets with “Adolph’s meat tenderizer” to aid with complete digestion in the dog that seems to be the victim of his copraphagia.
