There are things worse than a gift of regurgitated dog shit in the living room. This post has cheered me up since losing my job on Thursday. I don't know for certain, but this seems to be small dog behavior. My large dogs wouldn't go near its own business, much less eat it. I was watching my step-sisters pug a couple of weeks ago, when I saw this habit first hand. I was out in the yard letting Mugsy tend to business when I noticed him eating something... He kept it down, but I didn't want him near me or the kids. Solving the problem? Air horn. Even before thinks about it, scare it out of him before he can take it back in. It works for big dog behaviors, and I know enough about those. ___ http://www.mccmedia.com/mailman/listinfo/brin-l

Our dog is crepuscular and corprophagic. The former is fine, however. Nick -- Nick Arnett [EMAIL PROTECTED] Messages: 408-904-7198 ___ http://www.mccmedia.com/mailman/listinfo/brin-l

We generally try to pick up his leavings as soon as he leaves them, which makes it less likely... but we don't always notice when he's done doo- doo. My dream is that there's some magic potion to add to his food that will discourage secondary consumption while not interfering with the primary. http://tinyurl.com/ndskg Or you can try adding several dessert spoons of vegetable oil to the dog's food.

RE: Unspeakably offensive canine behavior
I figured id use this group for this little question... what do you all know about cobweb plots and its relation to chaos theory? My friend is working with them now and explained it just simply as they are related to chaos theory. Any helpful guidance would be great. Nick -- No virus found in this outgoing message.
