Have you tried feeding a little fresh pineapple to each dog?  Supposed to stop the poo eating.

Is your younger bitch fed on different food?  I had a similar problem but thankfully my boy grew out of it when they were all fed the same brand.  Until then I just made sure I was there to pick up as soon as it was done.  I've heard the pineapple dies the trick (as suggested by Perry) apparently it makes the poo rather acidic an unappetising.

Cheers

Can you put them on the same food?  We had the same prob in reverse - it was the pup eating the older dogs poo.  We found it became less of an issue as soon as the pup moved to the adult food but it does still happen from time to time.  The best remedy tho is due diligence - if we pick up immediately it solves the problem completely
