Animals are great! They’re adorable, they’re fun, they’re cuddly, and they just bring a lot of positives to our lives. But sometimes, they can do things that drive us absolutely nuts.
For example, my cat likes to announce whenever she’s doing anything. Needs water? Meow loudly her whole way to the water dish, meow at the water dish, meow when she’s finished drinking, and meow the whole way back to her bed as loudly as she can.
So, what obnoxious thing does your companion do that you really wish they didn’t?
My dog will 100% of the time eat my other dog’s poop in the backyard and occasionally throws it up inside the house if we miss picking it up…defeats the convenience of having a backyard for them to do their business.
Have you tried putting them on probiotics? My dad’s boxer used to eat poop and putting him on probiotics stopped the behavior.
Good suggestion, thanks!
We did try pineapple as the other commenter suggested, but the one with the apparently tasty poop is a picky eater and wouldn’t eat pineapple
I’ve heard giving dogs pineapple can help too since it has digestive enzymes in it.
They make treats that make poop “taste bad” to dogs. I used to work at a pet store years ago and it was a common thing for puppies.
