so i noticed zero in the back bard was picking something up with his front teeth and shaking it, i went up to him and it was dog poop!! is that bad for him> hes not straight eating it just like picking through it....
Yes there are quite a few differing theories around this. My advice..keep an eye on him. Get him checked for worms/parasites as well.Lots of puppies and some adult dogs eat poop. Sounds like your pup was just playing and not actually consuming it. I had a beagle that did it most of her life- some theories are they're deficient in something, they smell some undigested food, or they just like it.
