I know this has been raised before but here is my situation.
My two border terriers are 8 now and given the chance they will eat their own feaces sometimes almost immediatelly.
They have accsess to the garden through a flap so go in and out at will.
They are fed 50grams burns chicken and rice 0730 and same again at 1630.They are walked 3 times a day usually but never less than twice in all weathers.They get no other food and only the occasional dog treat.They are not over weight and vet says they are in good health and condition.Just paid almost 600 quid to have their teeth cleaned.
Tried all the usuall ,pineapple corgette,carrot but nothing appears to work.
When they are away with us at our caravan when outside they are always on the lead so do not have a chance to do this ,but when they get home its like they cant wait to s..t and eat it.
It does not bother me so much but it is driving my wife mad .
If we are not straight out there to pick it up its gone.
I have read about additives that can be put in their food.
Does anyone know anything about them or have any other helping ideas.
Thanks
Dave
