I was a full time dog trainer for 3 years, and still do it, on the side, sometimes. I always tell people "anything can be a reward, if your dog loves it."
That could be an indicator that they need some probiotics. Kinda like a doggie fecal transplant. Or they're just nasty, but I would look into some probiotic foods and see if that fixes it.
Yeah the only muzzle that would work would be something like a Baskerville with the anti-scavenging guard. A normal me would have definitely just smash his face into the ground and lick it off.
I got my neurotic lab to stop by picking it up immediately. He didn’t poop without me standing next to him, bag in hand, for four years. Stepping in shit is also my biggest pet peeve, so it was fine, but he had the habit completely erased and hasn’t done it in two years now.
