When dogs eat their poop it is usually because they are feed a low grade dog food. They can't really digest corn and they smell it in the poop, thinking it's dog food.

Sounds rational. Also, "For some species, like rabbits, eating poop is a totally normal way of obtaining key nutrients. In fact, if you prevent rabbits from doing this, they will develop health problems, and young rabbits will fail to thrive. Fortunately, dogs don’t need to get nutrition this way. Eating poop, however, is a normal, natural dog behavior at some life stages." www.akc.org/expert-advice/health/why-dogs-eat-poop/ |

Might be natural, but it's still disgusting! One of my son's Labs does this and it just grosses me out!

It is certainly something people should consider when adopting a dog.
