Puppies

I inquired with the animal behaviorist about Harlow's poop consumption and was relieved (no pun intended) to read this response...

Several dogs (mine included) only eat frozen poop, but not fresh poop.  Of course, if you pick the poop right up before it freezes you can prevent this habit.  But if not, don’t worry it will not hurt her only your nose!  If it helps, it appears that during domestication wolves and the beginning dogs began to hang around humans because they not only liked their food but also their poop.   So poop eating is a natural behavior for dogs!


And I saw this on FB and thought it was nice:
