…and my dog likes to eat his poop.

many have asked for updates on the puppy and that’s the biggest update. he eats poop. his own poop. others dogs’ poop. goose and duck poop. if it’s poop, he eats it.

we go outside to go bathroom – he poops and promptly turns around to give it a taste. we go for walks in the neighborhood and there’s Rex’s poop from around the corner – hmm, how does this taste? we go to new richmond and walk by the river – hey, there’s goose and duck poop! a tasty treat! thank you for taking me for walks so i can munch on poop!!

it’s gross.

so the vet offers me a prescription that is supposed to make poop-eating as disgusting to dogs as it is to you and me. this plus the heartworm pills: $115.00. into the food it goes. yay! dolby eats the prescribed anti-poop-eating stuff!! oh, boy – there’s “the look” that says, “i’m about to explode!” – out we go! dum dee dum dee dum… here comes the squat, out comes the poop! yay!! dolby pooped! now let’s go back inside!

no! dolby, NO! LEAVE IT!! GET AWAY FROM THAT POOP!! STOP IT! ewww!! dolby! you’re supposed to think poop-eating is gross now!! oh! stop licking my face! bleah blah pbbtthhh!! so much for “works instantly” and “makes poop undesirable”.

otherwise, he’s good puppy. we’re having a lot of fun with him. he’s growing fast and having a lot of fun. and he eats poop.
