Probably, my dogs have had a taste of that, as well as cat poo out of the litter tray (while still kittens and not going out, me and himself each thought the other was emptying it till we caught Boo in the act), and I've caught them both picking up bits of horse poo too. Gross
I don't let them come down the lottie now!!
If you dog wants to give you a kiss, make sure he don't use his tongue!!!
I don't keep a dog but they will eat dog poo, fox poo, chicken poo, cat poo - any kind of poo. Pretty disgusting. One of the less endearing aspects of dogs.
From each according to his ability, to each according to his needs.
Dogs eat poo from grass-eaters (especially horse, sheep or cow) with enthusiasm. One knowledgeable-sounding author reckoned it was a way of getting some of the vitamins and minerals which wouldn't be in meat. Not all of them will eat poo from other species, but some do. It is very off-putting, and makes worming somewhat more vital than would otherwise be the case.
Dogs really are a bit disgusting (and I love my 2).
Flowers come in too many colours to see the world in black-and-white.
My dogs will eat rabbit,horse,cow,cat,chicken and if I'm not quick enough,occasionally each others....Ugh!!
Some of them also roll in fox and badger dung and are mightily surprised if I yell at them.You will just have to worm them more often than usual and don't kiss them!!
Ditto to what Russell said. My foul doggie once slathered himself head to toe in fresh cow pie. It was awful and left grass stains all over the dog towels. YUK! I won't even take him on a walk without a leash in the pasture because there's no stopping him from eating stuff. The sneaky b*****d stashes turds in his cheeks to bring inside before the end of the walk.

I found that adding more vegetables to my dogs' diets stopped them doing this.
Also, I think they roll in fox's as some kind of camoflage technique, so the foxes don't know they're there - doesn't help in stop them doing it though - sorry. Maybe they need head-to-tail overalls and wellie boots?
