To celebrate, I’m re-releasing our runaway top episode - “Dogs Eating Poop: One Species Evolutionary Meat is another Species Evolutionary Poison”. Somehow, that hit a major cord with everyone. Not sure if that says more about dogs or us, but it’s for sure a hot topic🐶 🍽️ 💩😅

*****

So, your dog eats poop.  Is it deviant?  Or an elegant evolutionary solution?  

In this podcast, Jane and Mark look at the research and talk about the possible functions of poop-eating, what works and does not work to stop it, and why.  

We won’t say you’ll come away happy that your dog eats poop, but for sure you’ll see it in a different light.
