My dog Gage been eating poop out the litter box and dirt today. He wont eat most foods dry or wet. Fussy as anything. I tried tons of foods and he just refuses . my pops gives him chicken or pork chops or people foods just to get him to eat sumthn. He used to eat Ol Roy wet but they recalled and stopped production was killing dogs. And then we went to Cesars wet amd he liked the filet mignon but now barley eats the. We tried Ziwi Peak wet n dry which is the most costly food we ever tried and he didnt like that either , he nibbled on sum of the dry but not really . any help would be appreciated. Fussier dog we ever had
Could coccidiosis cause them to eat dirt/grass? My puppy was just diagnosed with it but I couldn’t get a straight answer on this from the vet. My puppy loves to eat dirt and grass (and poop). I feed him 90% homecooked and 10% kibble. I give him puppy vitamins/probiotics and GreenMin minerals but he still eats weird things
We are retirees who got a Cavapoo puppy at 12 weeks. She is now 9 months. She’s been a challenge for us older folk, but we love her. From day 1 she has eaten anything she can grab: dirt, grass, weeds, leaves (she loves the jade plant, but we know it’s toxic for her, so do our best to keep it away from her), bugs, gnawing on rock, pieces of plastic tubing from our broken underground sprinkler; basically, she eats our back yard! It is so frustrating, because I worry about her getting sick. When we first got her, she had bad Guardia and needed 2 courses of antibiotics to get rid of it. Her poop has been recently tested, cuz she went through a bad period of diarrhea, and it showed no parasites. I’m now feeding her white rice, chicken, and slowly reintroducing her to a highly rated kibble by Annamaet, which she seems to like and tolerate. She does not seem otherwise sick in anyway. She just loves putting things in her mouth and, on occasion, eating the stuff! 🤦🏻♀️
Have you ever done a video on superficial bacterial folliculitis dogs? My dog is dealing with this right now and the only thing that seems to help her skin the best is washing her in a little antibacterial soap. Didn't know if there was something better.
I have a question about my dog that I’m concerned about: she’s a 7 year-old ish Shih Tzu (we don’t know exactly as she’s a rescue), and she regularly but not REALLY often hacks then coughs. She hacks about three times before coughing as if choking. Any idea what it could be?
Soil or As you call it Dirt, is where both antibiotics, prebiotic and prebiotic are found. So dogs being the smart creatures that they are instinctively knows this. The probiotics are slow to release to allow the goodness to get into the large bowl instead of the small intestines first. Check out Four Leaf Rover, Protect.
Puppy curiosity…he doesn’t actually eat it but digging and may grab dirt in his mouth. Solution: never leave him alone long enough to really ingest dirt, grass, twigs etc. Try to get him used to having you “sweep” his mouth.
True. In dirt there's a chemical that makes depression go away, that's why gardening makes you happy! I'm sure the same goes for dogs. Also look into fulvic & humic acid, it's very much lacking in our soils (and so our foods) these days, and both animals and humans need it. It deworms and is full of minerals. Gets rid of liverflukes too.!
I wish every pet owner would stop buying that garbage called kibble , that crap is literally killing our animals along with all those vaccines that unscrupulous vets keep on pushing on pet owners. I stopped feeding my German Shepard that trash ,and cook her meals . She’s way healthier and happier and not going to vet once a month like it used to be . Please if love your animal feed him real food.
Would you then please offer 2 recipes for homemade food for dogs and portion size of ingredients and quantity to feed for one meal's worth for a 60 lb. Lab?!! 🙂
Yes please a video on why dogs eat poop and how to stop it. My dog has been doing this since he was a puppy and he is 4 now! He cleans up the whole park! To the point that I think the city should pay us for the sweep! He is on kibble, but even when he was on raw diet, he did it too! SOS
Thank you.. again. Honey has renal failure and had been having the occasional dirt munch. She’s improving daily thanks to all your info💓💓
Dirt obstructed my dog's bowels!! It became an emergency.

It's because of a mineral defiency. They need iodine
Music is too loud and distracting.. that aside, thank you for the work you do 🙏🏼

Could it also be that there is Blood and/or Bone meal in my soil?

CBD is great for my dog's separation anxiety. If I'm gonna be gone a while I give to him a couple hours before I leave;

They are naturally programmed to eat dirt because it is a way to get soil based probiotics.
My dog has white gums and was given package insert of EPIAO pre filled injection . But recovering slow.

Mine eat dirt, but the real treat for them is manure, our sacred cow poo. Why do they go for that after a perfectly 🤔 good meal?
I never heard a dog eat dirt my dogs like to eat grass
