Hello, I was wandering how to stop my dog from eating his own poop. I saw that the internet said to get a "No Stool Eating" chewable.

Hi there. You can certainly try this, if you want to. In my experience, most treats and food additives intended to discourage dogs from eating their poop aren't very effective - it's hard to make poop taste worse than it already does! The best thing to do is simply go out with your dog when he poops. and pick up the stool with a bag and dispose of it before he has a chance to eat it.
