Tucker may be backsliding
Posted: 28 Nov 2021, 19:07
After Tuck became stabilized, he stopped eating poo. For over two years we have not had to deal with this nasty habit. Recently, though, he has started doing it again, and I am at my wits' end, following him and his siblings all over the yard, at all hours, trying to get it picked up right away.
There are times when I just can't be there, and some of it may sit before I get to it. He is excellent at finding it, and every time I have to let him out ahead of my going, he finds some & eats it.
Increasing his food seems to do nothing but make him poop more, and still he eats it. I already give him 33% more than the bag suggests, and he hasn't lost weight. He takes B12 daily, even though his result was 666. For all the time I've been on the forum, I have assured new members that their pups would probably stop, once they were stabilized, and here I am, 2 1/2 years later, eating my words.
Any shared experience and words of wisdom would be so, so welcome. I am pulling my hair out over this. Thanks, friends --- Pam
