Dogs are our good friends. They are loved by people for their loyalty, friendliness and intelligence. However, there are some dog behaviors that may bother owners, and one of them is their love of eating poop. So, is it natural for dogs to eat shit?

First, we need to understand the habits and history of dogs. In the wild, the ancestors of dogs ingested a variety of food to survive, including waste from other animals. This is because these droppings can contain undigested food scraps and nutrients, which can be an important source of energy for food-starved dogs. In addition, dogs have a very good sense of smell, which makes it easy for them to find and track waste.

Be that as it may, present day homegrown canines are by and large not lacking in food and supplements, so their crap eating conduct might be more without much forethought than genuine need. Moreover, a few canines might take part in crap eating conduct for mental reasons, like fatigue, nervousness, or absence of certainty.

Still, we can't rule out that some dogs do have an innate tendency to eat manure. This behavior may be related to their genetic inheritance, possibly due to some metabolic or neurological abnormality. For these dogs, eating poop may be a natural, instinctive behavior. Whether it's an innate instinct or a learned habit, eating shit is not a healthy behavior. It can have negative effects on the dog's health, such as infection with bacteria, viruses or parasites. In addition, eating poop can also cause problems with the mouth and digestive system.

In general, the reason why dogs love to eat shit may be both innate instinct and learned habits. However, this behavior has a negative impact on the dog's health and well-being. To ensure a dog's health and well-being, owners should take appropriate steps to prevent and correct this behavior.
