Eating his own poo might have nothing to do with the baby. Lots of puppies do it, it's behaviour they learn from their mothers. I think there are food supplements you can get that make their poo smell bad (to them). The best way of stopping it is just to clear up straight after them - they grow out of it. Not easy with having a baby to look after too. Good luck with both!

Anyone had issues bringing a new baby into the home? Our 4.5 month puppy feels usurped by our son even though I give him as much fuss as I can, he has taken to picking up his poop, bringing it inside and eating it. I know it's a game to get a reaction but it's grossing me out and now I have to follow him with a coal shovel. Le sigh. And then he chewed our new dining table today. Trying really hard not to yell but I'm a bit stressed and sleep deprived.
