  1. Not sure any of this explains why my dog occasionally picks CAT poo out of the litter box and munches down...

  2. I've read that cat feces are high in protein, which might explain why dogs enjoy this tasty treat.

  3. Yet still no insight as to why virtually everything coming OUT of a politicians mouth is just so much poop!

  4. Thanks so much! Our shih tzu is notorious for this behavior. It's helpful to get some ideas why she does it!

  5. My dog loathes his feces and tries to bury it. Even as a puppy he shunned his feces. What does this mean? He is well fed with an organic high protein diet.
