After I read this string about Peke's eating poop, I have watched my peke, Sweetie, three years old to see if she does this. I know that sh didn't up until three months ago as I lived in an apartment and always let her out on a string. Since then I bought a house and finished fencing in the back yard so that I could let her run without a leash. I never saw her eat her poop until I fed her a batch of cod fillet's fried in butter and olive oil mixed with steamed potatoes flavored with olive oil and butter. The next time I saw her eat her poop was when I gave her a batch of curried lamb leg. I don't know what to make of this.
