Homemade Dog Treat Recipe
A fun and tasty peanut-butter dog treat that’s cheap, easy and delicious!

seems to work
Works well for my rescue dog. Dog was abandoned and ate lizards, bugs its own excrement. This has stopped that. But, I will always have to use it. If I stop she goes back to her old ways. So, it does work well.
It worked in 2 days. That was 2+ months ago and haven’t had a problem since.
If your animal has a problem eating other animals poo this is the ONLY product that works. I’ve tried everything. Don’t waste your money on chews probiotics that also say they detour poo eating. None of them work at all. I promise you.
We were appalled the first time we saw the pup go after his own stool. But after investigating we found out this was common among hound dogs and so we found this product to help. After one serving the attraction to the next bowel movement declined. Within 48 hours there was no attempt at eating the stool or even tasting. I continuing using the entire package and when it was gone the problem was solved. I highly recommend this product.
All their life my two shepherds have eaten their poop. More so my female than the male. I’ve asked the vet and they sat it just smells like their food, to them. Another vet suggested trying For-bid. I found it on Amazon.com, the price was right, and it was easy to use. I just opened a packet at breakfast and dinner and spread the white powder over their food equally. They didn’t notice any difference and ate the food like normal. I did use For-Bid for about 3 months but I’m very happy I did because I watch them out in our yard and they just smell the poop but don’t try to go any further with it. And I think because of that, they chow down on their food as soon as I put it down. Under 3 minutes and it’s gone. Thank you for the For-bid product!
I have a 9-month-old pup that developed a disgusting stool eating habit when he turned 6-months. I got him checked out at the vet to see if it was a nutrient deficiency but that was ruled out. I keep him stimulated to keep him from getting bored. I also try to pick up his poop as soon as he drops them. He’s a sneaky one and will stealthily take a piece to snack away in secret.
I’ve tried several different brands of stool eating deterrents over the course of several months but none of them worked with getting my pup to stop snacking on his poo. At my wit’s end, I took him back to the vet and she prescribed a 3-packet course of this. It worked like a charm and the poop eating stopped.
However, 2 weeks later, he started snacking on his brother’s poop so I purchased a box of 12-packets to give both of my pups a full course. Directions say that you can sprinkle a bit in their food once the full course has been administered. While it hasn’t stopped my little guy from snacking on poop 100%, it has decreased it tremendously. We’ve cut down on multiple instances a day to once a week.
My relative has a young dog that would eat it’s feces. This stopped him from eating it. I will gladly use it on him again if he starts back. It is a very disgusting habit
I assume it has a nice flavor. I mixed it in with the dog’s regular food. It is easy to use I am very pleased with the result of using it.
It does take several days of usage for the dog to stop eating cat stool. Be consistent and it will work. No taste – cat eats normally.
My female puppy has the problem, tried this as directed in start phase and worked wonders, and stopped but after a week or so she started again, so we have been using a small maintenance dose and she has been doing well.
My German Shepherd pup had a disgusting habit of eating her own poop immediately after pooping it out! And then vomiting it up all over the floor or furniture 15-20 minutes later. It was so disgusting I couldn’t even clean it up because of the overwhelming gag factor. My wife was the only one who could do it and she laughed at me every time. It was serious to me. It had to stop. I couldn’t take it. Physically or mentally. Just the thought of it made me gag. I bought this stuff after doing a little online research and thank God it worked. It worked immediately! She hasn’t eaten poop one single time since. We treated the cats’ food and the Shihtzu’s as well just in case she might try to eat theirs… everyone accepted it happily with no problem. All of the dogs and cats ate the Forbid as if nothing was up. I will use this again if she ever starts up again and I will recommend it to anyone who needs it. It works!!!
I have a small dog who picked up the habit of eating poop. Needed something to help Stop that, and this product seems to be doing the job.
It was delivered promptly and i put it right to work.
I adopted Cody when he was 3 months old and he started ingesting his stools shortly thereafter. A visit to the vet and he was on Forbid, which stopped this habit within days. Unfortunately, after the course of treatment ended he returned to this nasty habit. Mistakenly, I ordered a different product on Amazon that could be fed to him like a treat versus sprinkling it on his food. That product did nothing to deter Cody from ingesting his stools! I went back to Forbid by placing my Amazon order immediately. We are once again free from Cody ingesting his stools.
She ate poo once in the time of taking this and hasn’t again since.
Forbid has worked well, combined with digestive enzymes. Our dog is a rescue dog so came to us with the habit well established. Both were needed for her to not be so compelled to eat her poo and deter her from doing so. Fortunately she loves the taste and thinks we are preparing something really special for her; when we stir it she gets so excited for her food! We went a full 2 weeks of the initial high dose, and have been doing the maintenance dose for 2 months now. Reluctant to stop altogether. Expecting to continue the digestive enzymes thereafter.
Works great. You may need more than one box.
As you can see no cat poop hanging out here mouth. This stuff works great. My vet actually recommended it. I have the same 2 barn cats. I used this product with a different puppy and it worked too stop her from eating cat poop. New puppy had the same obsession with eating cat poop. She stopped after feeding this to the cats for a few days. No animals or poop were harmed form using this product.
Awesome
Our vet provided us with this product to help our little puppy to stop eating feces. She would poop and immediately eat it. So gross, but not uncommon in the animal kingdom. We ran out of their sample, and they did not have any left in stock. We ordered the 12 pack from Amazon. After 4 more days with For-Bid, our pup stopped eating her stool. The instructions are clear and easy to follow. After over a month, no more poop is being eaten. Great product1
My dogs like the flavor and this seems to work, but it may need to be used for a longer period than indicated on the box.
It works! My two little Shih Tzu puppies actually stopped their disgusting poop snacking. Coprophagia, the name for this habit, was actually causing them a problem. It was giving them diarrhea. I have had to purchase a second package, and am in the process of phasing it out. I mix it with a dab of canned food and give it to them before their morning and evening kibble.. That way I control the exact amount consumed. BTW fresh pineapple tidbits, a recommended alternative to try did nothing to discourage my little Coprophagia poop snackers.
I used Forbid for my GermanShepard puppies.
It works great.
This is a disgusting habit and this product did what it claimed. We figured out that since we took her chew toys away that she was destroying and eating she reverted to this activity. Once we reintroduced really tough chew toys she quit sampling the yard waste. This product helped to deter her and break that habit and our research helped to control it. Would highly recommend.
What I like about this product is because it works. In addition it was recommended by my veterinarian.
My dog is a sniffer?
We have two sibling 3lb Toy Chi pups and were at our wits end to stop them from consuming their poop until our vet suggested ForBid. I followed the directions and the next day there was poop in their play pen. Lots of it! I’ve watched them poop, sniff it and they walk away. Adding the powder may be long-term and ongoing until they become adults but it’s working for us.
This product works. I have tried other products that were cheaper but they do not work.
If you mix this with your dog’s food and he/she stops eating, then STOP. This happened to me so instead, after each meal I mix 1/4 tsp of forbid with 1 tsp of yogurt and my dog tears it up. He is 8.5lbs so depending on your dog’s size you may need to use different measurements. My dog no longer has a poop mouth from eating his own poo.
Works great! My dog stopped eating stool first day of using it. After five years of this problem, nothing else had worked. I will definitely confirm with this product.
My Vet recommended this for our German Shepherd puppy who was constantly eating her own poo. We used this product by the directions and she stopped on the first try. It’s been probably a little over a month and I feel confident saying she’s fully broken the habit.
works great
I bought Forbid as it was recommended at the vet hospital. I gave my baby Forbid for six days (yes, I exceeded the 5-day recommendation by accident) but noticed as early as third day that he wasn’t going for his poop. Very happy I bought this!
I have used this product for years, being a veterinarian technician for 15 years. I have used other products for stool eating and I have found that Forbid is the most effective in stopping the habits of dog eating both cat and dog stool. Just put it on the cats food or whichever pets the dog is eating. Even their own food. It appears to be tasteless, both my cat and my dogs ate their food with no hesitation. I highly recommend this product over any I have used.
Purchased this two different times. First time didn’t have any results, dog kept eating feces. Then someone told me that we were doing it wrong! You’re supposed to put the powder inside her food! Oops! First time I was going outside, following her around and putting it onto of her feces. The second time worked much better when we actually mixed it into her food and had her ingest it.
I first discovered this stuff from our vet who gave it to us (well, sold it) for our dog, Reilly, who likes to eat our cat Cooper’s poo. (Our litterbox is enclosed, but we have a dog door that leads to an enclosed dog run that Cooper has now decided is even better than his litterbox in case you’re wondering why we didn’t just move our litterbox to a more secure spot.) Anyway, we find that this works wonders–it’s fast and efficient. I ordered this package of it from Amazon because Reilly recently started up again with the poo. Reilly is a stubborn dog anyway and I’m guessing that taking it for a few days isn’t going to cure the problem on a permanent basis, but this way we have extra in reserve so when we see the problem start up again, we can give the dosing again and voila! no more poo breath! I would definitely buy this again and probably will! It was cheaper than buying it from my vet, too.
I had to put my cats out and as soon as I did my dog went to town. Mmmmmmm mmmm poopoo buffet. I use 1/3 pack when I feed the cats and all is good. No more doodoo tummy loving yum yum . Worked for us.The only thing, I think the dog can smell it in the poopoo. As soon as I stopped using the stuff by dog put on her buffet paints and loosened her belt. Buffet time.Update: I stopped feeding this to our cats and my mutt is back to old tricks. Now my pug is trying to get in on the action too. The best part is watching my wife and kids run from the dog after a chocolate love’n poopoo feast. I told my wife, “Look on the bright side. At least we don’t have to pick up the cat poo.” I don’t know why our cat can’t bury her treasure in the neighbors yard like the other cats.
My puppy stopped eating his DO in three days. You have to stay consistent with the powder, or the urge to eat it will arise again.
I have a GSD that ate his feces on all occasions,esp when he had allergies and i had to give him medicine. I tried everything but this worked. At first i had to give him large amounts at each meal. Then i weaned him back to smaller amounts over very gradual time periods. I have also used canned pineapple in his dry food, alternatively, and that works to add fiber and make the fecal not smell the same. But i always keep this on hand.
Works perfectly as long as you follow directions and administer with each meal and for every dog in the household.
My dogs are no longer snacking from the cats litter box…ick! I have used this over the years with other dogs and always had good results. I am happy and the dogs breath is good.
Okay – what can you say about a product that prevents your sweet little puppies from nibbling & even eating each others poop. The vet tells me the puppies think it tastes good to them but is a habit that should be broken if possible. It’s suppose to make their poop taste bad and apparently that’s exactly what it does. One puppy is no longer interested and the other is losing interest. Can’t beat the price here and I would recommend this product if your having the same problem.
Well, the dogs don’t mind the taste of the Forbid – first 12 packets I ordered were stolen off the counter and eaten up paper package and all. The second shipment, that also arrived in just days, is secure and seems to be working after just a few feedings.
This is an excellent product to use with all stool eating problems. Dog owners must realize stool eating is not solved simply. It can have psychological, nutritional, and habit based roots. While this product helps the animal to not eat the stool right away u need to WATCH your dog and praise them when they potty and leave the stool. Clean up your whole yard all the time. This problem does NOT stop in a short time. It can reoccur in times of high stress in the household. Disciplining the dog only creates a fearful animal whole is more likely to eat the stool on the sly as they associate the discipline with the act of potty and wish to get rid of the stool. With time and patience , positive reward, you will win this battle.
Seems to have worked for us!!! I did a lot more than the 3-5 days my vet said, but this problem had to stop! Much cheaper price here than from vet office.
We only used this for a few days and our dog no longer eats poop. We have stopped using it since the behavior stopped and he is still not eating any. This worked great for our dog.
Found this product easy to add to the dogs food. Seems to be working well. Followed instructions.
I ordered this for my dog. I had tried everything, but he would not stay out of the litter box. Worked great. Two packs and he was all cured.f
It works my dog has stopped her nasty habit
My YorkiePoo no longer enjoys cat litter treats. It has taken slightly longer than the initial dose, so all four cats are now on the 1/8th dosage for 5 weeks. Shipping was fast. Good customer service.
It works. The other dog has no interest anymore.
I tried another product that my pet store reported as a frequent seller that worked–it did not. The For-bid however was effective and in the time it promised. Take note–my dogis young and had not been exhibiting this behavior for long at all at time of treatment.
I love this product. I fed it to my cats for about a week and my dog took one taste of their feces and hasn’t eaten it since. As gross as it was to let my dog eat out of the cat box, I would do it a million times over if I knew it was gonna stop her from eating their feces.
We have been using this for one week at this point and so far so good. One of the dogs started to test things our again so I sprinkeled just a little on their food and it seems to be stoping the poop eating behavor. I’ll try to remember to update in a month or so, once I’m convinved the behavor has stopped.
This is a product I have used over the years. My vet recommended it about 30 years ago when my dog started eating her stool. Works well. However, some dogs you do have to use it more often, depending how long they’ve been doing it. We have a greyhound we just rescued in January of this year, she must have been doing this a long time and not even the foster mom saw her, but I did. So it did take a few months to get her to stop. I also keep the yard cleaned up, but sometimes I just don’t get out there, especially if it rains, so this is a good product. I had a different product and it did not work, so I went back to this. Would definitely reorder.
Worked fine for my dogs.
the packets came on time and work well as the maintenance part of my dogs plan. thank you very much. i will be ordering again as part of the maintenance.
This really worked for my little Yorkie. I received a sample to try from my vet and was skeptical as we have tried everything to keep her from eating her own poop. After a week of use…boom! Now she does her business and goes on about her day. I understand we can eventually stop using it and she won’t go back. For now though, we won’t be without it.
I’ve been thru the wringer with diarrhea, vomiting and poop eating. My Vet set me up with For-Bid at over 2x the price. I fed it for 5 days to pups and kittens. They stopped eating their own poop, not sure about the kitties as they mostly go outside. No upset tummies, not even stinky poops. Now it’s been 2 weeks and they’re gobbling it right up again. Thank you Amazon because I’ll have it tomorrow!!!! If it doesn’t work this time I’ll update my review. I’m updating, No poop eating!!! Pups aren’t eating their own and I see kitty poop which means they’re not eating it either. Only been sprinkling on kitty food and it’s working great. Will start sprinkling on puppy food tomorrow.
I got these for my brother, he said to me that they work. He was fully satisfied and he recommends this product to others.
I have used this before to prevent my dog from snacking on cat doodles. My vet said to put it in my cats food to prevent the dog from eating the cat poo. it worked. Ive never had an animal that ate its on poo. So Ive no idea how it works for that. But it was perfect for my situation, it worked terrific.
So, we’ve got two dogs and one just seems to really love the others poop as well as her own. We’ve been using the FOR BID for a little over a week. We don’t see a change just yet. However, we are keeping at it as according to the instructions we should keep sprinkling small amounts until the behavior stops. This dog has been at it for a few years. So, the habit is hard to break. I will advise once we’ve been at it for a couple of weeks.
I think its working
Works, put on my cats food and my dogs are not interested any more. I have a rescue cat and 2 full blood Brussel Grifon puppies so the cat gets the treatment. She still eats her food like always.
I wish this came in a can with measuring spoon, like hot cocoa. You have to becareful not to get the paper packets wet and one packet is 4 doses for my dog, so there is no easy way to store an open packet. You can’t expect your dog to stop their habit after using this product. I have found that it only works each time you use it. If I skip putting the powder on one time, he goes right back to eating poo. I have been using this for 5 months and it works, but you have to use it every meal.
I know there are a lot of negative reviews, but it worked well for me and here is why….you MUST use this consistently for over a week and possibly longer. Do NOT stop after 5 days or skip it. This item will only work once the protein builds up in their system. Also really make sure to try and take your pet out to the bathroom as frequently as possible. My puppy has stopped this nasty habit thanks to for-BID.
Stops both our dogs from the urge to eat poop. We have had to give them a reminder round after a couple of months. So far so good. Don’t know if we will have to do again.
This stuff is great! works for all 3 of my German Shepherds! They didn’t know what they were eating!
My vet recommended I get this product for my dog and I thought this was going to be the answer! It was… for about a week. Then, my little “poop snacker” as she is so lovingly called, decided to go back to her nasty habit. The directions say that you should then continue with the For-Bid but not as much. But I travel a lot and my sitter didn’t notice this was happening again (how could she not??) so too much time went by and I think I need to start all over again with the dosage. I’m not sure exactly how it works and have to consult my vet again in regards to this but from what I had seen, it seems to be pretty effective if the directions are followed.
I have two 14 week old Cairn Terrier puppies who want to eat EVERYTHING including, you guessed it! I’ve used this product for 3 days now and so far, so good! They want to totally stay clear of their feces instead of eating them! All you do is sprinkle some of this (different amounts based on dog’s weight) and mix in their food. (Currently used over dry food.) Makes the excrement taste awful so they don’t want to eat it or in my case, even go near it! So far, so good!
My vet recommended this product to me to keep my dogs from eating from the litter box. It must not have any taste because my cats don’t mind it at all mixed with their food, but the dogs stay out of the litter box now.
The packaging could be better, but the product works. If you have small dogs (under 20lbs) it requires only a quarter of the package and its a gritty powder – so a little messy. But it does the job.
It is so nasty watching you dog eat kitty turd treats. I put this on the cats food and now the doggies are no longer going searching for treats when they go out.
My dogs don’t seem to mind it so it probably doesn’t taste or has a good taste. I always put a little olive oil on their food so it helps to mix in. I don’t know if it is working yet. My little chaweenie, who loves to her brothers poop (so gross) I don’t always see her do it.
What can I say, both my dogs think each other just has a butt buffet. It’s gross. This helps. Doesn’t work for every dog, but it’s worth a try!
Idk about the flavor personally but my dogs didn’t mind sprinkling it on their food. Definitely worked have t caught my dog eating his own poop since. I did do this for two weeks straight longer than direction atate
Our dog always ate his poop but with Forbid he doesn’t. One of the few things that lives up to its hype. Really easy to use. He seems to not care that it is in his food.
I have a little pocket beagle who couldn’t even finish pooping before she’d feast. This worked like a charm! Please note, however, this product has but one ingredient…….MSG! You do the math.
I have tried others to stop my GSD from eating his poop and my other Dog’s poop. Nothing works except this! It is pricey because I have 2 dogs. I had ran out and wasn’t going to buy more but seen him do it again! So I’m now purchasing another 2 boxes
I have a little dog the sometimes likes to eat her poo. We were told about this product from a girl that works at our vet clinic. Works great!
This stuff WORKS!!! One of my goldens was always eating her poop and though normal for a dog, disgusting to us humans. Started using as directed on Monday, and by Thursday, she sniffed her stuff and walked away! It does take a couple of days to get through the GI tract, but stay with it – it’s amazing! No more gross poop eating!!!
OK, the reason I had to buy this product while disgusting is apparently fairly common with puppies. Diligent use and clean up seems to have done the trick. It sure beats the alternative!
This is the same priduct I paid the Vet for. The dog seems ok with eating it and I have not noticed any more poop eating. We will see when I stop the product.
Our vet recommended this product for our poop eater. Vet sold at much higher price, was very happy to find it reasonable here. Vet recommended using for 30 days for hard core poop eater and we are at day 18 and have only had the initial taste. We recommend pairing with verbal praise and rewards for ignoring. Or a warning if dog is enticed. No idea if she is broken of the habit but we are hopeful since this is a taste deterrent (vs smell deterrent from what I understand) and she has not eaten since, tho we have erred on the side of caution and warned a few times. Yes, we are spending time being very vigilant for now but in the long run it seems worth the time invested now for a long life of not eating poops. Fingers crossed!
My dog kept eating her stool. For-bid was recommended to me by my daughter. I bought it gave it to my dog and cat. (My dog would go into litter box and eat cats stool). So far she has not eaten any stool. (Hers or the cats). Am really happy with this product.
My dogs ate poop and I needed something to stop it since I thought it was a dietary issues. It wasn’t two of my dogs just like to eat poop! Ewww. This has stopped that, not right away but it did work!
This is the third time ordering the product. Having six dogs with a couple of them liking to much on the others poop, this is the only product that I have found that actually works.
The box comes with several packages. As instructed on the package, I gave my chihuahua mix the full 5 days, twice a day.It has worked. I’m just wondering if this is the end of this habit. I hope so!
We put this on both of our dogs’ food for about a week, hadn’t really seen them eating each other’s poo in the backyard, but all of a sudden they are not nearly as interested in eating other dogs’ poo at the dog park or on trails. (Unfortunately one of them still finds horse poo sublime.)
My Vet recommended this brand for my puppy with eating her poop. I used it for 5 days straight, and now she turns her head away from the poop. It’s expensive, but worth the money!
Works pretty good not as good as I’d hoped but it’s better than it was
Cats ate it, apparently they are ok with it. Dog looked all over the yard but didn’t find anything interesting!
Seems to work so far
Our dog has always had the bad habit of eating its ‘droppings.’ This product we purchased has, so far, WORKED!! So, we thank you and recommend this product to others.
This is an easy to use powder in daily packets. Easy to use, highly effective.
This is amazing. It is the only thing that has helped with stopping my dogs to eat their poop. Great Product!
Works when this is in use.
it works! We uses it 1st for our dog when she was eating her own waste. Recently she started eating our other dogs waste so we put For-Bid on the other dogs food and it again has stopped this nasty habbit.
W/ an ingrained habit, had to stick w/it for many months as would go right back to habit otherwise. Best to shake powder w/kibble in ziplock bag to coat. The Solid Gold treats were convenient but had no effect whatsoever. Pumpkin worked okay – some deterrence but not complete aversion. Vet recommended For-Bid
It took 3 or 4 days to work, but the.puppy stopped eating its poop. Maybe it was just coincidence and he just happened to out grow the desire, but I am a believer. But it does make their poop and gas smell much much worse.
I followed the instructions and immediately my pup stopped eating his poop. I purposely left the poops out longer than normal and he didn’t even attempt to eat it. 10/10.
We have 2 dogs and the younger one (9 months) had been eating the older dog’s poop for months. We tried watching him, cleaned up poop daily, etc. The vet finally had us try FOR-BID. The younger pup still ate poop (we let him) for the first 5 days so we continued with sprinkling FOR-BID on the older dog’s food past then. Well starting about day 7 he has stopped completely. We are now at day 20Ish and still sprinkling FOR-BID on the older dog’s food. Will update when we stop entirely.
Fast service and item is as described. Used this product before on my older dog and it worked. Purchased again for another dog that I just got to get them out of the same bad habit.
We have used this over the years when we had a puppy “poop eater”. It really works and does not take long for puppy to stop this behavior. It’s an affordable and effective product.
How gross is this, my dog would poop and immediately turn around and start eating what just came out. I sprinkled this product in his food and within 5 days no more poop eating
This actually works!!
Works as advertised! Prevents other dog from wanting to eat poo.
Works much better than the vet recommended use of pineapple juice! If more than one pet all have to use it. I used less than the instructions called for and it worked. Every few months a “booster” d ose is needed
well since i am not a dog will be hard to rate flavor:) but my dog will eat when mixed with wet food….
This stuff is awesome
I like not driving 22 miles each way to the vet to get these when needed…By the way… this brand works!!
works as it should
Put it in my cats food so the dogs quit eating the cat poop in the yard. Works great. I add enough packets so u can see a light dusting on their food in the feeder.
Has definitely helped with deterring our dogs from eating each other’s poop! And they don’t mind that it has been sprinkled on top of their dry dog food.
Anti poop consumption
Best thing out there for stool eating. Nasty habit for pups. But it happens sometimes
Works like a charm!!! Thank God!
Help my dog
kept my puppies from eating their poop, works great, stopped giving it when they would indulge in it anymore.
Did the trick! I used 1/2 pack mixed with peanut butter and rolled it into a ball. Only used it 2x. Now when I go to pick up the poop in the yard it’s Not half eaten AND no more poopy breath!!!!
The only thing that worked for my puppy!
This product has helped tremendously with my puppies awful habit. I’m curious about how long it’s going to take to stop using it altogether.
This works for my puppy. She no longer eats her feces as long as I continue to give it to her.
My 2 puppies were eating their poop. After using this product for a week, they sniff, but no longer eat! Stopped this habit.
Product arrived on time and so far working like a charm. Cooper the pooper eater really wants to eat it I can tell, but just sits next to it and looks at me as if he’s saying something isn’t right with the old tasty poo and I wanna eat it but it’s gross now. Thank you For-Bid !
If you dog likes to eat or lick poop, then use this! Sprinkle on the food for as long as needed to break the dog of its habit. Ever since we started using this, we have not had a problem. Better than anything else we have tried.
New puppy and loved to eat his poo. Yuk. This is his 5th day on forbid and after about 3 days no longer eating poo.Very happy, now can get puppy kisses.
It works for my GSD recommended by my vet
Great product – works like a charm. If your pup is eating poop – this will work. Also, Vet recommended!
I love forbid. It does exactly what I want it to do.
The product works a described. I wish it came in a larger container, but I will take what I can get.
This stuff actually worked on both my dogsNo more poop eating
Great product! Highly recommend!If this product is used properly it is extremely effective. I have used it on multiple dogs and it worked every time. You can not just use it one time and say it doesn’t work!
We had tried everything and nothing worked till this.. Strongly recommend if your fur baby keeps eating poop.
Worked within 24 hours to curb our puppy from eating her own poop!
Thank goodness there is an actual product that works. My entire animal clan needed to be treated (3 cats 2 dogs) so I had my reservations. Well here it is 1 week later and my little dog no longer has “terrible” breath and I don’t see her defy my command to come on the grounds she found a pile of something else that was worth the time out she would be facing. After the forbid treatment and a bark collar for her excessive barking, I’m pretty sure she believes all the fun has been sucked out of being a little She-poo dog, especially since we got her at 2 years old. I’m pretty sure since she had 2 years for the habit to set in, both bad habits fall under the guidelines of “Old dog-new tricks”Little Dogs rock!!
Good
My veternarian recommended these and with three dogs it just didnt work after purchasing several boxes I have put forward the extra effort to just pick up everyday.
It does work.
Works well
This product seems to work as advertised
Finally something that stops my puppy from eating poop
This worked for my Yorkie, no more eating her poop
I followed the directions and it worked like a charm.
Stopped, after three days. Highly recommend.
Good
Liked that it worked. Disliked that I had to give it to my dog in the first place.
It works good
The dogs like it and it works
Best product
Effective and dogs don’t have an issue eating it
Same as what we got from local vet only cheaper price helps so much
We could not break my Beabull of eating poop so I decided to give this a try. After a couple weeks he no longer eats poop!
Great buy. Vet recommended for any age group. Did exactly as intended when used by instructions.
My vet said this usually works. It did and the dogs will eat it.
Works for sure
It works that’s all you need to know
I bought this for my new puppies. I have 2 puppies one of which loves to east the others poop. ugh. So far this product has been working. Needs to be used continuously for a few weeks. will definitely be ordering more.
All 3 of our German Shepherds love this additive to their food. Even our finicky eater chows down on her food now! And I love that our poop eater no longer finds poop to be a delicacy.
I work for a vet and this is what he uses, and it works
The ForBid product worked for me. My puppy no longer considers the litter box a “treat” station.
It Works!
So far my toy poodle has not eaten her poop since ive started using this.. so im a happy camper..
Easy to use
So far, it seems to work.
This really works
it did the job no more problems
Seems to have worked for my dogs.
Finally something that worked!!! A vet told me to use this product. Gave it to them for 7 days, stopped for 3 then repeated the cycle twice.
Worked great for keeping my dogs out of the day litter box.
Helps the tummy of my nervous GSD
This product does help, but with 3 dogs, it was costly to reorder. But it DOES WORK! Must give it time, and follow the rights steps!
Prevent coprophagia
Worked great! My one dog was eating our other dog’s poop. After a couple days of using For-Bid I actually saw my dog pick up some poop and spit it out right away.
I went to the Vet Clinic here in town to get some For-bid because my puppy was eating it’s poop. They were out however I found this on-line at an awesome price. I had super fast delivery, too.
I was skeptical trying this out, but it works a good 90-95% of the time. I did notice that if I gave my dog a certain treat, it made her poop more desirable despite the Forbid. As soon as I stopped giving that specific treat, she stayed away as hoped! I’d definitely give this product a try!
Seems to work… still tries to eat other dogs poop when she’s walked
This has helped both of my dogs keep away from their poop. If I go a few days without giving them this, they will go back to eating their poop. So it’s a small price to pay to keep my pups from eating their poop. Highly recommend 🙂
If you have a dog that is a stool eater this is a great product. I have used ot over the years and suggested to friends too. My first choice to use
Does the job of stopping this most disturbing and wretched occurence of self poo eating pups. Add to the food and it makes good tasting poo, taste bad.
Works as advertised. Eating poop no more.
My Dog Thanks you….
Finally! I had two puppies which were continually going back and forth eating each others Poo…… this did the trick!
Yes loved them I didn’t order enough so will have to do it again
The product is working
Worked on my puppy almost instantly!!!
Awesome
Worked very well on a stubborn little Yorkie!
Worked great
Coordinated with my vet to work on breaking this awful behavior
does the trick for my dog
My VET recommended this product. Put it on my dogs food for about a week. So far no more problems!
Works great!
Forbid worked just fine after five days of using it. It has been about a month and I’m going to have to feed it to my dog again
Works well
Easy
The For Bid works very well, my dog has a very bad habit and this breaks her of it.
This really worked in 5 days for my 4 month old puppy! I highly recommend it!
Works great to keep puppy from tasting it’s own poop!
YES, it works!
This product worked great for my dog within two days.
This worked great
GREAT PRODUCT FOR HABITUAL PROBLEMS
Actually works!!
Great value
great
Good product have used for years when needed. Good price and delivery.
Works very well. Cured my dog.
Best price
This is a good product, since we have a dog that likes to do this and with this product it stopped, worked well with no problems
Would buy this again
Everything Great
Works great! My dog has stopped eating her poo!
It took us 2-3 boxes, but if you’re consistent with For-Bid for that long (we used 1/2 bag per meal) and have some on hand down the road just in case your dog reverts, it should work great for you. We had a puppy who loved his poop and For-Bid broke his habit completely.
seems to have worked. Ordered more.
This helped. My puppy doesnt’ like the taste of poo when I have fed her and the other dog this stuff with their food. Whew!
2 packets and my dog doesnt eat poop anymore!!! So so so GLAD!
This worked really well for our puppy. We put half a packet on the older dog’s food for breakfast and puppy was no longer interested in eating stool that afternoon. Very effective for us
this stuff works great
This worked well with my dog who uses pup pads at night.
So far so good.
Work great nasty habit completely stopped after 7 days and has been a month now habit has not returned
Very good product!
I was completely satisfied with forbid my puppy stop her habbit as soon as began using this product in her feeding. Will keep using forbid until shes a little bit older.
Worked in the veterinarian office for years and Forbid works.Dogs don’t eat cat poop anymore…
keeps my dog out of the cats litter box. however, you must use it daily. there is no tapering it off.
Vet recommended
My dog has stopped eating his poop after only one day! We allow kisses again!
This item has helped my dog with her problem
helps dogs who like to eat poop! Gross!!!!
Came ontime. It appears to be working.
works great
Really do work!
This stuff really works!!! After just two meals with the For-Bid, no more issues with the doggie, For-Bid is Awesome!!!!
The first time I used it I tried it 1/2 packet for 5 days. It worked for a little while but then my dogs were at it again. So I did 3 weeks, twice a day of only 1 teaspoon and this time only gave it to the dog whom’s stool was being eaten.This is a powder. I put it in the bottom of my dogs food dish, a tiny bit of water and then mix food with it. It worked great with my dogs! I had to use 1 teaspoon of For-Bid twice and a day for 3’weeks. I purchased the 3 boxes of For-Bid to have on hand. I also had to repeat this 3 week dose in all my dogs about 6 months later. A year later and that stage is over. Thank goodness!I highly recommend it! But YOU have to be diligent and make sure to get the dose for the full 3 weeks. PS: it made my dogs poop speckled white, NO diarrhea, and a different odor.
There are a lot of bad reviews on this product but it worked perfectly for us. Our puppy stopped eating his poop sushi!
This is a great dor or cat deterrent. When I read amazons reviews it only received 2 stars, but my vet gave me this for my puppy who was eating his poopsicles like a frozen treat. Five stars are not enough. It is a white powder packet, you sprinkle right on your dogs food, if he tastes it, you would never know, my dog inhales his food with half of this packet per each meal. And I haven’t seen him near any stool ever since. If you have more than one dog, sprinkle half a packet on their food also to prevent stool eating dog from eating other dogs stool.
This product is very affective. Highly recommended.
It works but with two dogs you need two boxes. Also you need to put 1:2 envelope on each dogs food every time you feed them.Effects last about 6-8 months
FINALLY A PRODUCT THAT WORKS WITH MY PUPPY DOG
Yes, it’s a disgusting habit which makes me want to banish our little dog to the outside forever. However, after sprinkling Forbid on his food and our other dog’s food, he stops eating stool. It normally works for about 4 months and then we have to use it again. I use 1/2 pack per day and divide the 1/2 between my two dogs’ bowls. Easy solution to yucky problem.
It works great!!
This is working for us!!! We used it for 5 days as prescribed by our vet, and it worked. When I took her off, she started again, so I am giving it to her again. She’s stopped again. Hopefully, if I give it a few weeks, she’ll stop for good.
nice product
Used this twice a day for 3 days on my dobermans. Eliminated the problem. Added a bit of tuna to their dry food with this and they ate it immediately
Delivered on time and everything was correct.
This product works! With no flavor my dog doesn’t detect it in her food. No more stool eating; yay!
As expected
This product made all the difference. I didn’t use the full dose but sprinkled it on my two dogs food and miracle of miracles the poop consumption stopped. The most amazing thing is this had been a longstanding habit for my one dog. The other one thankfully never did this. I have continued a light sprinkling.
When we rescued our dog he came with worms. The worms made him want to eat his poop. Thank goodness this stopped it or he would have kept getting worms!! DEFINITELY WORKS!
I put it on their food once a day for just over a week, and have had no problems since. It has been about a month now.
Worked the way it said it would. Problem gone.
The For-Bid really works. It is the only thing that helped us with this problem. Great product and no side affects for your dog at all.
We have used this product consistently for over a year now and ithas worked great! We only have 1 of 7 dogs that poop eating has been a problem with, but all seven get to eat the For-Bid and as long as we keep using it we have had no problem.
Our vet recommended this brand when we had a pug who tried to eat his sister’s waste. Our current pug isn’t liking the diet the vet put her on, so she recently decided to try to eat her own waste. When we noticed she was trying to find past waste buried by the ground cover in our backyard, we added For-Bid to her food. Within days it stopped her from searching/eating her waste. I’m so glad For-Bid works and works quickly – now we don’t flinch when she tries to lick our faces!
This works great! I only had to use a couple of days! My puppy had a bad poop eating problem…hers and the other animals, I put it in for cats and dogs, within 2days of using she no longer eats poop!
This stopped my dog from eating his feces. He tried the first day or two but it messed his stomach up and so he stopped trying. Will definitely buy again if I see the behavior returning.
I followed the simple directions on the box. So far my dog is not recycling her own poop. Now if only I could get everyone who brings their dog over using this, she wouldn’t eat any poop.
We had an issue with our adopted puppy consuming her own and our other dog’s excrement. Product came highly recommended from our vet and worked after second feeding – very easy to use and flavor does not deter her from eating her food. Great product!
This product works great. It did what it said it would do.
Took a little longer than indicated but finally broke our pup of his issue
The product works great
THIS PRODUCT WORKS AND VERY FASTTHANK YOU
It works for my doggie
Seems to be helping this issue. Follow the directions on the package and be consistent and it will start to work after a few days.
Works great!
I adopted a puppy at 3 months, he was eating his own poop. My vet suggested for me to buy this product. This product does work. Very great full. Thanks a lot
It works!!!
Shortly after initial treatments I needed to start for a 2nd time. Rarely go after the poop anymore. If it happens agsin I’ll restart dosage again. It’s been about 2 months now and so far so good.
Received in very quick time. No problems. Product exactly as described.Excellent seller.
My vet recommended this for when my dog eats his poop. You use it for a few days. It definitely helps but not the first day and the problem can return so I keep this on hand.
The first round was not successful, but the second round was much more so. My puppy does like to eat EVERYTHING but really want to curb this eating habit as soon as possible.
Haven’t had a problem since using this. I did have to do two rounds of it though.
It’s for my dog and easy to administer.
WORKED WELL WHILE THEY TOOK IT BUT AS SOON AS YOU STOP BACK TO THERE GROSS HABITS.
Shortly after initial treatments I needed to start for a 2nd time. Rarely go after the poop anymore. If it happens agsin I’ll restart dosage again. It’s been about 2 months now and so far so good.
My three dog eat it sprinkled over their food and the one dog with the problem is not having the problem anymore.
The only reason I didn’t give it five stars was because I am not sure how well it really worked on its own. I mixed it with bromelain which is a derivative of pineapple that I found in the vitamin store. Bromelain aids digestion. I added it with the forbid. I got the impression that my dog was having problems digesting everything and that’s why her poop seemed so delicious. It says it should work within five days, I didn’t notice it really working until about 10 days. My vet only sold me three of these packages. I like that Amazon was a lot more inexpensive and I got a package of 12 packets. Due to the fact that I had a lot of it I didn’t give up and now my dog has been finally leaving her poop alone. It will make your dog’s poop smell really bad. You will notice that your dog has made an accident in the house, you can’t miss it. It was really important that my dog stopped this bad habit because she was cleaning herself off and she gave herself a urinary tract infection. It was really going to be a nightmare unless I could break her of this. I’m going to keep using my product until I run out. By then I suspect shw will be well over the habit. My dog is a puppy. This seems perfectly fine for puppies. No, I won’t give you a photo of what it does!
We used this product for twice a day for a week with our 3 month old puppy. He seems to have stopped wanting to eat his own stool now, which is great! We used to have to clean it up IMMEDIATELY after he went to the restroom because he would quickly try to eat it. This product appears to have solved the problem so far. The only downside is that you are supposed to measure 1/4 of a package per feeding. This was a little tough and messy, so I just guessed each time. It would be helpful if the product was already measured and packaged in single servings.
This product has helped my poor Zoe stop eating her poop, but after I am done adding (per the instructions) to her meals, she will go back to eating her poop again. I will then just add a pinch to her food as maintenance as instructed. In addition to the Forbid, I just follow her around and quickly pick up her poop not giving her the opportunity to eat it. Makes it a big inconvenient but better than her eating it. And regardless of what others may say, Zoe is not lacking anything in her diet (she has been tested by the vet). Zoe began doing this after her last and final litter of puppies, ugh!
My new Australian Shepherd pup started out eating her own feces, then started following my older dog around and ate hers. My vet recommended it for both dogs so our pup wouldn’t go back to eating her own again. Good news is – It worked!! Bad news is, she started again 3 weeks later. Plan on keeping it on hand to keep trying!
I am severely disabled. My Service Dog seems to have decided that he doesn’t want to hurt me by making me go down the agonizing brick stairs from porch to yard. But he’s SO embarrassed to poop in the house that he started eating it to hide it.
About three weeks of For-Bid, as directed, and a great deal of verbal training has really helped!!
Hes not perfect yet, but it’s definitely working. Thank you!!
We have two dogs, a 50lb Aussie female and a 100lb Black Lab male. The male has always been a poop eater. The female, not so much. Our vet gave us a prescription medicine that seemed to work but was quite expensive, so I ordered several products from Amazon to try. This was the winner by far and the poop eating has largely disappeared (about 95%). It is much more economical and the dogs eat it readily (you sprinkle it on their food). One less annoyance in life!Dave
Worked for one dog and ok for the other dog. Both dogs love the taste and lick their bowls. Make sure you give it time to work. This doesn’t work right away. I didn’t notice any changes for over a week and then started noticing gradual decline in stool eating for both dogs. One stopped all together. They both still sniff around. I tried the Chew treat ones but none of those worked. This seems to be the best solution for my dogs. Some dogs it may not work. Don’t give up. I’ve tried everything and this was the last product I haven’t tried. I didn’t like the packaging and the reviews weren’t all that great. The point is to try it because it may work for your dog. Again, it will take time to see the impact so don’t expect results right away.
So far it’s kept my chihuahua out! I only use it about 2x week. A little secret that I want no one to repeat is that I stuck a little on my tongue to see how it tastes…. it has zero flavor. I put it on dry cat food. And it could be my imagination, but the poops seem less stinky. Wish it wasn’t so expensive, but I will buy it again.
My 7 year old dog took to munching on his own feces. The first time he did it I called my Vet who sold me 5 days worth (5 packets) of this medication for $20.50. It worked for a few months but then the disgusting behavior began again. This time I purchased it through Amazon. I bought 12 packets for $21.99. Now that’s a much better deal for the exact same product. So we did 5 days again, the behavior stopped and I have extra in case it returns. Yuck!!!
Seems to work well and would have given a five, but he would not touch his food once mixed with it. We then blended a vienna sausage with the product and added his dry food to it and wow it worked.
Got this as a recommendation from a friend who is a vet as they notice when the dogs are recommended it as the owners who have used have had positive results. As for my use the product works amazingly while my dogs were on it. Only one of them has the issue that developed after adoption. Most likely due to stress and such from the traveling and separation from her litter. I’ve done 2 rounds of it and it seems to be getting less and less but comes back from zero eating a couple days after it gets out of their system. I’m hopefully the next round nips it in the bud. Having to spread it out over a couple months per dosage recommendations
Used it before on the same pet. Years before. I caught her back on that habit again. Now I will have to keep some on hand for her. But it works well. She had stopped doing it for years but she went back to doing it and then I knew she was probably bored. But I don’t like it. So I had to stop it.
OK, I have 2 beagles. They are best friends and do everything together – to include sharing their poop! So stating this product takes 3 months to cure them of this nasty habit they got from the high kill center was worth every penny. Now mind you…we had to stay on top of picking up their poop every time they went and we went from giving them 1/2 of the envelope a day to 1/2 of the envelope each meal (2 meals a day), BUT now they drop and leave the area and we do not have to pick it up right away or worry about that snack. This product was recommended by our vet, who also has a rescue beagle! If it doesn’t work for you, I’d increase it like we did AND pick up after them or they will continue to snack on the snacks!
I can say without hesitation that FOR-BID Stool-eating preventative (12 packets) really works. After just one packet, I no longer have even the tiniest desire to “sample” my stools, or anyone else’s. I credit FOR-BID Stool-eating preventative (12 packets) for totally giving me my life back.
I use this on the cat food all the time.the dog seems to stay out of the litter boxes now.
This product is easy to use and doesn’t have a bad smell when putting it in the dog’s food. We have a 1 year old from a shelter, so he has many months of stool eating. This product is the only thing that has at least reduced that. We are using other training techniques as well to get our dog to stop. This is the only product we found, thanks to the recommendation of our vet, that has slowed our persistent pup down!
When I told my vet that my new puppy was eating poop, she gave me three packets of For-bid to use and highly recommended this product. I used it twice a day and the pup stopped eating her poop. However, she continued to eat our other dog’s poop. I give For-Bid to our other dog twice a day, but it hasn’t deterred the puppy at all. Clearly, it must react in each dog’s digestive tract differently. As others have said, the MSG in the product does tend to dehydrate the dogs, so you’ll notice they drink more (and for puppies working on house training, will need to go out twice as often)!To combat the issue, I’ve tried immediately picking up poop (she’s super quick though), tried sprinkling hot sauce on the poop to teach her to leave it, and spraying poop with Fooey (an ultra-bitter spray used to get dogs to leave things along). Surprisingly, she didn’t mind the Fooey at all, and would eat poop drenched in the stuff. The hot sauce seems to have worked the best.I am continuing to use this product until it’s all gone in hopes that it may suddenly kick in and “work” with the older dogs stool.
The process of stopping a dog’s bad habit is a pain, but these did work to get him through the “season”, he’s a winter eater, so gross. You have to treat both dogs when you have two, seemed unfair to the dog without the habit, but it didn’t seem to cause any problems with their systems. Our vet recommended this brand.
Seems to keep our puppy from eating poop! Such a nasty thing he does and with using this he would back away from it. We should have given him more opportunities to choose to eat/or not to eat instead of pulling him away from it. So, we had to start all over. But it seems to be working!
Would’ve liked more packets for the money but it is what it is. It seems to be working well as my youngest isn’t eating poop but still does every once in awhile. It’s only been a few days.
Helped my dog
Needs to be on everything she eats, not just her regular meals. She will still “play with it” but not eating nearly as much. Just once in a while.
happy i purchased it to take care of dogs in the winter.
Seems to work.
Use this to figure out the dose. I was looking all over for this. Hope this helps.
After Searching and using several products to stop my Dog from Eating his Poop this WORKED!!! I took a few weeks but it worked.
This is the only way my dog will not eat his stool.
My vet recommended it for my pups, to stop them from eating poop & it takes a couple days to kick in but it does do what it’s supposed to do.
My puppy’s vet suggested this. After trying other methods, I gave up hope. This actually worked! I did not give 5 stars because it took a week to produce results. I would buy it again, if I had to.
A ningun puppy le gusta pero con la comida los engañamos y se lo comen sin ningun problema
Our vet recommended this for our retriever puppy. We used it when he was three-four months old. It took almost two weeks of consistent use (follow the instructions) for him to leave his poop alone. A lot of reviewers seem to have abandoned their efforts after the initial five days. Use as directed and hopefully you’ll have good results.
This product does work but takes about a week for you to see it work with your pet.
The product is easy to use & mixes well in food, flavor doesn’t seem to be a problem
No more fecal snacks wanted. Hope this lasts. This fixed the desire to drag in a turd and have a smorgazabord.
its hard to say if this product worked or if she started growing out of it on her own. but i thought i saw an improvement and it certainly is worth a try. this is the product my vet sold to me, and i got more on amazon when i ran out of my initial supply because it was SOOO much cheaper. UPDATE, eventually the puppy outgrew it on her own. I’d like to think that the product deterred her until she grew out of it.
Worked for our doxie!
Have had success over many dogs with this problem
TOOK SEVERAL DAYS FOR ANY EFFECT, AFTER ONE MONTHS USE SEEMS TO BE EFFECT6IVE
This works to get my dog off poo eating for a few months. Have to repeat treatment occasionally to remind her that poo does not taste good (ewww).Seller gets packets out quickly. Have never had to contact them.
We had purchased this at the vet a while back and it works really well.
seems to work, but I may have to continue to use it for longer than suggested….
It has taken longer than the five recommended days to start working, but, now that it is I would say that it is somewhat successful. The dog doesn’t eat the stool right away so we have more time to clean it up. I don’t know what would happen if we just left it lie. I checked with the vet and he sees no harm in continuing the ForBid indefinitely if it continues to work. The vet is going to try it on his own dog.
Seems to be working. My chi puppy still has to be watched or she’ll “taste test” her product. Doesn’t seem to enjoy it as much though. Wish they made it into a chew for convenience.
Has helped prevent my italian greyhound from eating her poop!
Works as well as anything I have tried. Don’t know if a product can stop this nasty habit, especially with rescues who have had difficult pasts.easy to use.
Tried the pineapple thing for a while and did squat. My 6-month old puppy stopped snacking and playing with his stools after using this one box.
The product seems to work just great for my puppy but still have some more to go.
We find that For-Bid helps the problem, but doesn’t solve it completely. We continue to use it because any help is better than none.
Works great! My dog stopped eating his poop! This was recommended by my veterinarian.
it seems to have worked, pup no longer eating her feces
it worked
I did not know what to expect when this was recommended to me. I was willing to try anything and very glad it has worked as well as it has.
Pretty good stuff
Great stuff!
Worked very well took a little longer than initial recommended dose.
Got it from the vet for my 4 month old chihuahua puppy. It took. week or so for her to leave her stool alone. She seemed to stop eating it almost right away, but would take it to hide somewhere. I do need to get more because now she’s eating her brother’s stool.
The product works
It works pretty good. I give it to my JRT mix & the cat. Keeps him from litter box dinning!
Works great! Half a package for two dogs is more than enough. Would buy them again in a heart beat.
This works. Helped our puppy to break a bad habit.
Works
Product delivered as promised. A bit on the pricey side
This stuff works but you need to keep using it or your dog might realize it and return to the previous behaviors. M
It’s work with my dog i really recommend it
Seems to be working. Make sure you give it to all dogs in the household.
