Anyone familiar with the form of probiotic they are talking about here? There are times I think maybe I ought to try eating my dog's poop?

Uhhhhh .... I'm gonna go with NO. NO NO NO NO NOOOOOOOOO

There's a universe of difference between camel dung, which is, relatively speaking, pretty clean, and dog poo, which isn't, particularly considering what most pet owners feed their poo-ing pooches.
Damn, you are brave @antares4141 ....

And dog's pick up and sometimes eat dead animals. They couldn't do that if they didn't have iron stomachs.
Not so crazy, doesn't sound far off from the Panchagavya treatment of @62milestogojoe (cow dung).
As I said above, world of difference between camel dung and dog poop. Ditto between cow patties and dog poop ....
You crack me up in all the right ways !!!
And yeah, dogs do seem to be able to digest everything from toy trucks to small vermin, bones and all ....
So there's that ....

I think I'll pass
The problem is that they don't pass their digestive invulnerability along with their poop.
It's certainly possible for some other species to have microbial strains that would be healthy for us, and also lack species that would be unhealthy, but the odds are probably pretty low for that happy combination.
I drink rainwater, with only simple filtering, so I'm sure I've consumed bird poop and dead bugs and all their microbes. I don't think it's done me any harm, but no noticeable good either.
I have no plans to experiment with unidentified (or identified for that matter) dung I encounter in the woods.

MERS COV (mortality rate said to be 35%) probably came from camels so it's probably not a great idea!
