Does Your Bichon Prise Eat His Own Poop

This is a habit that plenty of canines (of all breeds) create.

There's a couple of things you can do to break your dog of this disagreeable habit.

1. Try putting some diced pineapple in together with his food. Yes, I said diced pineapple. About 2-3 teaspoons. When the pineapple is digested it produces an enzyme which deters the dog from, you know, doing what we are trying to make him cease. Some Bichons may not eat pineapple. Our small male, Walker will eat  anything. But, our female, Annie, is finnicky. But, I think most Bichons will go for it.

2. If, for whatever reason, the pineapple doesn't do the trick, there is a product called "Deter" which has the same effect. Give him 1-2 tablets per day (depending on size) for weeks. It's been proven to be effective.
