How to stop my dog from eating poop naturally?
The second most probable causes for coprophagia is:
- Incomplete diet:
Often, we do not pay attention to the diet of the dogs. We give them those food which they like more. Never do such a mistake. Don't give them the food of their choice because some spicy food helps in developing the worms. If your dog is a fussy eater and does not eat that food which you want to give or which is beneficial for him, then in this article I have explained solution of this problem. you must read it.
a) Mineral deficiency
If your pet's diet is deficient in minerals such as phosphorus, calcium, sodium and magnesium, then your puppy or pet may have the problem of eating poop, so you should give them such a diet which is full of minerals.
Best dog food with phosphorus mineral
How to overcome?
To overcome the deficiency of phosphorus, you can give them meat and daily ingredients like milk egg.
- Calcium deficiency
You can give them raw bones, Vegetables, dairy products and fish like diet to overcome calcium deficiency.
- Sodium deficiency
grain, fruit and vegetable removes sodium deficiency
- Magnesium deficiency
Vegetables or seafood is a very good diet to overcome magnesium deficiency.
If you give these types of food to your dog, then I hope your pet's health will also be good and such problems will never happen.
b)vitamin deficiency
Vitamin deficiency is also a main reason for eating such an abnormal thing by your pet. Do you want to know that
which vitamin deficiency leads to Coprophagia in dogs?
The answer is Vitamin d complex
Due to this vitamin deficiency, your dog can also do such activities, you can give fish meat and dairy products to reduce this deficiencies.
c) Insufficient calories
Every living being from humans to animals need calories daily, similarly your pet needs a required amount of calories, which gives him an energy for daily work.
- Try to balance
If he is unable to get sufficient amount of calories or energy from his diet, then 'he tries to balance calories and energy by eating abnormal things'.
Food with calories
Here I will tell you about the food which has sufficient amount of calories, but before feeding this food, keep in mind that 'Do not feed this food too much' because large amounts of this food can increase your dog's weight & your pet may be overweight which will be barrier in running.
These are the dog's food with full of calories:
1. High performance dog food (Bully max)
535 calories per cup
2. High calorie (Miraclevet)
3000 calories in 228 gm
d) insufficient fiber
What is fiber?
Fiber (roughage) is the plant-based food ( fruits, vegetables, grains, and nuts).
It travels without digestion in our body, it keeps our digestive system clean and healthy and flushes out harmful things which are present in our stomach.fibre is very important for us as well as our dogs.
- Disadvantage
If your dog does not get the required amount of fiber, then its digestive system will be weak due to which the problem of eating poop products can occur.
- Food with fibre
So I will refer you to give those food to your dog which are rich in fiber such as multigrain bread. The mixture of Millet, Sorghum and oatmeal bread is called multigrain bread, in which high amount of fiber is present, also give them balanced nutrients food Other than this, you can also give pumpkin because pumpkin has very high amount of fiber.
Recommendation
I will recommend you to give your dog's food full of nutrition and protein. Start his morning with milk, which is the bulk of protein. Avoid feeding your dog chicken, spicy and tasty food.
If your dog is a fussy eater and do not eat those foods then buy a quality premium dog food and give it daily in every morning and evening.

Try to give simple food to your dog ( like: egg, juice, curd & bread etc.)
with full of taste. At the time of illness you should not give chicken or chicken rice etc to them. In-spite of this, if your dog doesn't eat food then you should consult with doctors as soon as possible.

Yes, it can be possible. If your dog is not eating food for many days due to depression then you should not worry about why your dog is not eating, but you should be worried

Reason for depression
- Know the reason
First of all, you will have to know the reason for depression of your dog.
Don't you take them on a morning walk Or exercise?
If you don't, then do it immediately at any cost.
Instead of exercise, if your dog do not start eating food then follow these steps. By the way, if you take your pet on exercise then it's depression will also reduce and it will also start eating food.
What to do?
You can give some good food to your pet. You can also add some tasty things to his food. Give some delicious and tasty food with his food like chicken rice, chicken, butter, curd etc.
c)Fussy eater
Is your dog fussy eater?
How will you know that my pet is a fussy eater. If your dog is not eating but seems fine Or acting normal then your dog can be a fussy eater.
- A problem
If your dog is a fussy eater, you may have problems with it because If you give him a simple food then he will pretend to eat because he has become used to eat chicken, chicken rice Or good food that you give him.
Oh shit! What kind of trouble is that?
If you give him a simple food then he will not eat or if you give him good, spicy & tasty food everyday then your dog may have stomach upset Or the condition of Coprophagia.
- Don't worry
Nothing to worry about that but yes, here you have to control emotions related to your pet & you will have to be strict against your pet If you want your pet to start eating food.
Follow these steps
At first, Set your dog's time to eat. If your dog is less than 6 months, Give him AT LEAST four times a day, If more than 6 months then three times, More than a year then two times in a day.
1.On the first day, when you start giving him simple food to eat. Take little food ON that day and keep in front of your dog and leave it there for 15 minutes after 15 minutes if your dog doesn't eat then replace that food with good food which he likes.
2. On the second day, repeat the first step again but this time the duration of keeping simple food in front of your dog will be at least 1 hour.
3. If he does not eat even after 1 hour, then mix something good and spicy food in simple food .
4. On the third day, you may have to control a little emotion because maybe your dog will not eat food for a day, keep food in front of him and do not pick it up until he eats.
5.From the fourth day onwards, Your dog will absolutely start eating at all. If your dog does not eat, then you do not have to panic, continue the process.
#3 Environmental stress
Your dog can also do eating poop actions due to environmental stress
You should pay more attention to this point.
How can your dog get environmental stress? Now, we will discuss it.
1. Isolation/ boredom
Often, people do not pay more attention to the factor that causes dog to go into stress.
Sometimes, He does not feel like freedom. Never make the mistake of locking your dog in the cage or kennel club and leaving him alone, imagine how we will feel if someone closes us in a room all day, similarly your pet also does not like to be imprisoned, often when people go to jobs in the morning then they leave their pet alone but when you leave your pet inside the house and leave it open in the evening, it gets bored all day and causes isolation and feeling of boredom, due to which your dog starts eating its own poop.
What should you do for this?Whenever you buy a dog, do not make the mistake of buying a single dog. Always buy dogs in couple.
If you do not want to buy another dog, then you may have to suffer a little. Find a neighbor in your area who has a dog. Remember your neighbour should be a good person. When you go for a job in the morning, leave your dog with your neighbor's dog so that he will find a companion and his day will also pass easily.
2. Small space
Space can also be a big reason of Coprophagia. Think how much space have you given your dog to live? Many people are afraid to leave their dog open because of attacking anyone. Maybe your dogs are giant breed which requires a lot of space. so Do you also keep your dog in a cage or small kennel house?
Close your dog in the kennel house only at night, Rest of the day leave it open in the house.
Is it necessary to have a very big place to pet a dog?
No , I am not saying that your house should be very big. Make a habit of leaving it open. If you do not have a very big house, then there is no problem, you should at least get it on the morning walk 1-2 kilometers daily.
If you do not give your dog a big place to roam, then the habit of eating poop will develop.
3.Anxiety
You would have to see that
Is your dog not happy with you?
keep your dog lovingly and be friendly with him. Do not let him feel uncomfortable.
When does anxiety develop inside the dog?
It develops inside the dog when you are giving them harsh training, I will refuse to send your dog to the trainer because they beat a lot. So it is better to buy a dog in its childhood and give him training from the beginning and if you are keeping your dog in an uncomfortable environment, then anxiety can develop in your dog.
4. Natural problem
Sometimes it also happens naturally with dog. To maintain some naturals problems, you dog start eating poop.
a) Wrong identification of food
What new pet owners often do is that when their dog does potty, then they serve food immediately after potting. which is a big mistake because dogs are not able to differ today's food and their potty. Due to wrong identification, they start eating poop. So, after pottying your dog, Never serve them food immediately.
b) Cleaning instincts
After delivering her puppy, when female dog stay and care for her puppies. There is a natural habit in it that she keeps her puppy clean all the time and because of cleanliness when her puppies do potty then she also eats it. Due to eating the poop, a typical smell of poop spreads throughout her body. When her puppies see their mother doing this, they also try to do something like that and eating poop becomes a habit.
If you are breeding or even the beaches that have delivered new puppies, whenever they do potty, then you should clean it immediately and take great care of cleanliness.

2.young puppy
3. Separation anxiety
Separation anxiety is also one of the man reasons for chewing. Any dog does not like loneliness at all. So, they start chewing, which makes their time pass very easily.
4.Enjoyment
Sometimes, due to enjoyment and excitement, they start chewing. Some dog likes chewing very much, most of them are newborn puppies.
How to stop chewing?According to me you should not be afraid by the habit of chewing and do not force them to stop chewing because chewing is a good habit for them.
But yes, if they are doing excessive chewing and ruining your important things then what should you do in this condition?
If your dog is chewing something wrong and you do not want to make that thing chew then you do not try to snatch that thing from him. If you do this then he will attract more towards that thing and try to chew it more. At this time, you can focus his mind on another side, such as give him something to eat or give him something to pick up.
- people's advice
