My fiance and I just got our 7 week old golden. He is the best thing ever, we love him! He has been pretty good about going to
the bathroom outside but every so often when he goes number 2
he will turn around and eat it. He was just at the vet 2 days ago and i know he is healthy. We do tell him no buddy don't eat that but he keeps on doing it. Any advice?!?!

You could give him a treat for coming to you quickly after pottying outside. And then pick it up. That stuff contaminates the ground and can give your dog health problems later--by the time you know he has a parasite, if you haven't been picking up, the damage is done.
Lots of pups have an interest in this, but if you help him resist by calling him to you, it gets better with time.
