My lab like to chow on the poop too. It's gross.

I have doubts about those theories..
A Labrador, as example, will eat EVERYTHING. Even plastic, aluminium, chocolate (poison for dogs), etc.
So, saying that dogs eat poop because it contains proteins, to me it is... a very very theorical thing.
Maybe animals, back when they were wild, DID eat stuff because it was good for them. But our house pets, I doubt it. They eat it because they are trained to think it is good, because they want to please us, because they are jealous and think the cat will eat it first, because it actually tastes good. Any reason is good, but to get an extra protein meal, hummm
This is just my point of view! Not proven scientifically.. although... I know lots of dogs that eat plastic and I don't think there is anything nutritious in there.
