In the process of learning about the world, this is normal.
Still, a puppy can taste different objects that are not edible for him.
But it happens that the habit remains with the animal into adulthood, especially if the dog is very curious.
But there are still other reasons for this behavior.
For example, itching from changing teeth or other problems in the oral cavity, vitamin deficiency, problems with the gastrointestinal tract.
In this case, you need to contact a veterinarian.
But it is very important to consider that eating objects from the ground only threatens additional problems. The animal can break teeth, provoke intestinal upset, and so on. Therefore, you should wean the dog from this bad habit.
Toys, distraction through games, and also teaching the dog no-no commands will help with this. Some also use irritating sounds that will disturb the pet every time it breaks the rule.
