Well, he never did grow completely out of it. He's pretty good about listening when he is on the leash and sniffing at it and we tell him "off". However we have a longer line attached to the deck so he can be outside by himself in the back. Sometimes when we let him out this way by himself I'll come out to get him and catch him in the act of eating it.
He also likes to eat the sleepers from his eyes. I'll remove them from his eyes once in a while when they get bad, and he always tries to eat them after I do.

Qualify that with "some", perhaps even "many", and I'd agree. Cats on the other hand... nuclear butts, I tell you.

On doing some studying on dog food nutrition, I came across various sites with info related to this. Make sure you feed your puppy good quality dog food. I've read quite a few times were switching to a puppy food like Innova, Wellness, Orijen, or Timberwolf worked wonders. I know my friend who has a Maltese had the same problem and when she switched to Innova, her puppy stopped eating his poop. I can speak very highly of Innova as that's what I use, although recently I just switched to EVO. Try to keep away from dog foods that are mostly full of fillers like corn and grains such as Hills/Science Diet, Iams, Eukanuba, etc. You may also see an improvement in bloating if your dog suffers from that as well.
