No Supervision? No Poop Access!

Many dogs eat poop when no one is watching. By controlling their environment, you eliminate opportunities before they happen.

What to Expect

• Practice: Anytime you’re not actively supervising

• Best Times: When leaving the house, at night, or during busy moments

• Goal: Prevent access to poop when you’re not there to stop it.

Step-by-Step Plan

1️⃣ Limit Free Access to the Yard

• Only let your dog outside when supervised, especially if poop is present.

• Use a long lead to guide them away from poop-prone areas.

2️⃣ Create a Safe, Clean Indoor Space

• If your dog uses pee pads, keep them in a confined, easy-to-clean area.

• Use a crate or puppy pen to manage unsupervised time.

3️⃣ Keep an Eye on Multi-Dog Households

• If you have multiple dogs, separate them during potty breaks to prevent poop-sharing.

• Supervise bathroom time and clean up before letting them roam freely.

Paw Tip: If your dog only eats poop when alone, it may be a sign of boredom or anxiety—add enrichment to keep them occupied!
