Peggy, Does this work on dogs who like cat poop?? It seems some feral cats are using part of my yard as a litter box when the dogs are in at night.? I worry about what they may get from eating the cat poop.? This would sure be a cheap and easy solution.? Thanks for the suggestion.

Those of us who've tried the Fig Newtons have found it easier to just give everybody a cookie...and if any one persists, give them an extra. It works....don't have a clue why. Canned pumpkin works, too, as does the pineapple...but the Fig Newtons work VERY QUICKLY....leaving us poor owners just a lot more poop to pick up!!! One other thing...I found that in addition to the dogs with "exotic taste" (to quote Kathy Tank), the ones who watched me poopscoop also decided they had to eat it...it must be that they thought it was valuable, otherwise "why is Mummy picking it up and putting it into bags in that can?" Try the fig newtons..........original flavor, of course!
