Number 4 of the Top 10 Questions Asked About Dogs?

I will cover one question each day in reverse chronological order each day DAY SEVEN

Number 4 of the most frequently asked questions is-Why do so many dogs eat poop??

There are actually several reasons why dogs eat poop, which is known as coprophagia:
**The most important point here is that this type of behavior is unhealthy for a dog. There could be something wrong, and you need to notify a Vet.

• Dogs sometimes do this because they are bored and want to get their owner’s attention.
• Sometimes a dog does this because the dog is lacking in some vitamins and is trying to make up for the deficiency.
• Sometimes, this is because something is wrong with the dog and coprophagia is a symptom of the illness.
• Sometimes there is nothing wrong at all, but the dog just wants to see what it is.
• When dogs are separated from someone or another animal, they might engage in the act of coprophagia as a way to cope with the separation.
• Being alone or when a dog is left in small spaces most of the time makes them more prone to coprophagia.

A Veterinarian can help to make sure your dog is not sick, stays healthy, and lives to the oldest possible age.
