Answer #1

Perhaps you need to train, and discipline your dog.

Answer #2

She may not be getting enough nutrients out of her food. I would recommend getting her a better brand of dog food, one whose first ingredient is real meat and not meat by-products. Corn, rice, wheat, or other grains, shouldn’t be one of the first ingredients either. If your dog is eating his food too fast, that could be a problem too. He/she can’t absorb all of the nutrients in a full kibble, which would also explain the feces eating. Of course, I don’t know how your dog eats, or what it eats, so I really don’t know… Is your dog doing other bad things besides eating stuff? Maybe it’s wasted energy. You could try taking him/her on walks or play more throughout the day. If anything major has changed in your home life, that could be causing your doggy to act out too.
