What's the safest way to stop my 4-month Shih Tzu from eating poop?

Question

What is the best cure for our 4 month old Shih Tzu who eats her poop. I have read a number of articles but don not know which ones are healthy choices. Pet's info: Dog | Shih Tzu | Female | unspayed | 4 months and 7 days old | 6 lbs

I would recommend using Forbid or bitter apple to try and get Rascal to stop eating the feces. Both of these are safe for dogs. The Forbid you put in the food and they eat as a supplement, which then leads to bitter tasting poop and the bitter apple you apply directly on the poop. 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!
