Yes, thank you. I do understand where your coming from..I can see it making her see the feces as..well something she can eat or something. I guess thats where she got it. I saw her eat it once, like mary said. It was sooo..not right..ew. But only to the other dogs, not her own. It makes me sick thinking about it. I wasn;t sure how to train a dog when I got her though, and I thought that this trainer would know best, so I was like, hey, if she said it then I guess it should work! She also told me to put their noses right above it. I thought that was kind..well..gross, so I didn't really do it that way. I guess its the same results though. Thanks for telling me.
