What could be the reasons for a dog eating feces?
This behaviour is not normal and it is a vice that is acquired in puppyhood or in dogs that are tied up or bored with nothing to do. The latter will respond if given exercise and his mind is diverted. Initially, keep the dog on a leash while walking until in time he learns. Adding a little brewers yeast to the food seems. One of the possible reasons could be a deficiency of phosphorous and minerals. This can be solved by giving the dog steamed green plants/vegetables to eat. The vet will give injections of Tonophosphan (3-5 injections every alternate day). Another reason could be if the dog is not being fed properly. Underfed dogs often end up eating faeces. Worms are also one of the causes. Your dog should be dewormed.
