Hi there and thank you for using Petco Pet Education Center, formerly Petcoach to address your concern. I would recommend trying dry dog food and seeing if this helps. The eating of mud and poop is likely behavioral and you can try and use products like Forbid and bitter apple to help prevent Lucy from eating these things. Try different sized kibble with the dog food and you can even add in chicken broth or pieces of cooked chicken breast. I hope this helps! Please let me know if you have any other questions or concerns and I would be more than happy to help you further. Please take the time to mark this question as helpful or not as it helps us to improve on the quality of our answers to other pet owners. Thank you kindly!
