Dear Brooke:

Thank you for your inquiry to Pro Pet. If you are seeing improvement after the intial two week administration of our Stool Eating Preventative, it would be recommended to double the dosage for an additional 3-4 weeks. Give all the tablets together at the same time, once daily. The product will change the taste of the stool to make it unpalatable and generally, once the dog draws the connection that stool eating is no longer enjoyable, the cycle is broken. If we can be of any further assistance, feel free to contact us.

Dear Peter:

Thank you for contacting Pro Pet. Generally, the most commonly reported side effect with over-ingestion of this product would be some intestinal upset such as soft stool or diarrhea. What type of dog do you have and how is he/she doing today?

Dear Viola:

Thank you for contacting Pro Pet. This product needs to be given to the pet whose stool is being consumed so you need to give this to your bichon to deter the min pin from eating that dog's stool. We hope this is helpful and if we can be of any further assistance, feel free to contact us.

Thank you for contacting Pro Pet. Yes, this product is to be taken orally by the pet whose stool is being consumed. If we can help with anything further, feel free to contact us.

Thank you for your interest in our product. Your dog should be seen by your vet. Please forward your name, address and phone # to us at United Pet Group, Inc. We need this information for your file.

Dear Linny:

Thanks for contacting Pro Pet. This product needs to be administered to the pet whose stool is being consumed so if your puppy gets into the litter box then yes, you need to treat your cat and this is not harmful and perfectly safe to administer to cats. You would follow the same dosage recommendations. If we can help with anything further, feel free to contact us.

Oftentimes we see this behavior in puppies and usually they grow out of it. Meanwhile, be sure to clean up all signs of stool. Continue to use the Stool Eating Preventative tablets.

I would also add a small amount of MSG to the food; this has the effect of making the stool taste bad (sounds kind of funny, I know).

You might consider a "sting" operation: Leave a small amount of stool out, and spray it with a cayenne pepper solution, or tabasco, or bitter spray. When he eats it, he will recoil and begin to feel an aversion, based on this negative experience.

To make the point more forcefully, you can first spray some of the bitter or cayenne right into his mouth. This will not be pleasant. When he approaches the stool and smells the same scent on it, he will not be so tempted to eat it. Refresh the negative reinforcement by spraying his mouth with the bitter spray 1 to 2 times weekly, until the behavior stops.

Keeping him engaged in interactive and self directed play will also help keep his mind off his favorite dessert!

Thank you for contacting ProPet. I am hopeful that you contacted a Veterinarian or the Poison Control Center to be on the safe side. Particuliarly because your dog is a small breed. Please let us know how he is doing.

Thank you for contacting ProPet. You would give your dog the weight appropriate amount of pills daily for 2 weeks. At the beginning of the third week, if there is no change you would double the dosage for another two weeks.

Thank you for contacting Propet. We sell the Stool Eating Preventative which you would give to your dog based on weight for 2 weeks. After the two weeks if he/she hasnt stopped completely you would double the dose for another 2 weeks.
