Yes all dogs eat cat poop i know its disgustiing but its the sort of thing most dogs like.
Cleaning the litter tray as soon as the cat has pooped will stop the dog having access to it .

Luther used to occasionally, but he has lost interest in it over time (Lucky me!!)

LOL Jamiya! Mr. Green

Natalie loves cat poop and will happily snack on it any time she gets the opportunity.

I think that given the opportunity, most dogs would love "tootsie rolls" as we call them in this house. Rolling Eyes
But the reasoning behind it is interesting...
apparently cat food is generally very high in protein and in the poop its not exactly broken down thoroughly and the dog can pick up the not-broken-down stuff and it still looks/smells like a snack to them. Shocked
At any rate, we caught Kaida sniffing the box once and we waived arms, yelled, hollared, freaked out and screamed "NOOOOOO" and she doesn't even go near the box now! thank God! Wink
