Physically Prevent Poop Eating!

If your dog has a favourite poop spot, sometimes the best solution is blocking access altogether!

What to Expect

• Practice: Anytime your dog has access to high-risk areas

• Best Times: During outdoor playtime or when dogs share potty spaces

• Goal: Physically prevent access so poop eating becomes impossible.

Step-by-Step Plan

1️⃣ Use Fencing or Barriers

• If poop-eating happens in a specific area, block it off with:
  ✅ Temporary fencing or exercise pens
  ✅ Puppy gates for indoor areas
  ✅ Raised garden beds or barriers for poop-prone spots

2️⃣ Separate Dogs During Potty Time

• If you have multiple dogs, let them potty one at a time.

• Clean up before letting them roam together.

3️⃣ Monitor Outdoor Play Areas

• If your dog free-roams outside, designate a poop-free zone for play.

• Keep their play area separate from where they go potty.

Paw Tip: Out of sight, out of mind! If they can’t access poop, they won’t eat it.
