You are probably not prone to chowing down on poop, but some of our best friends beg to differ. While all dogs are not drawn to the fresh stuff, some are decidedly inclined (heck, drawn) to gobble it up. If you are still reading despite topic and tone, maybe it's personal. If one of your canine friends eats poop, you may wonder, "Why, dog? Why are you into this? And is it normal? And, well, could you maybe do it less?" Here's what we know: dogs eat poop. They'll eat their own and that of other dogs.
