Question
my three month old dauchsund puppy eats her own poo and chews on anything in site including my feet but i need to find out what would cause her to eat her own poo

Answer
Hi Marie,
I'm not sure why she does it, but itis very common.  You can buy a product called "Forbid" that you put on their food and she will stop doing it.  You can buy it, or a similar product, at any petshop, Veterinarian office or you can buy it online.  Just go to a search engine and type in "Forbid" or "Pet Products" and you should get plenty of results.  She is chewing on everything because she is teething. Get her some chew toys, or make your own. Take two old, thick socks and tie them together , making a hard knot in the middle. She will play with it for hours and it is a great teether!

God Bless,
Becky
