Fresh dog poop is an environmental hazard in that it may contain a variety of pathogens that can affect other dogs and humans. Thus dog owners should not leave dog poop in public places but should collect it up and dispose of it safely.

However, once decomposed dog poop (along with all animal poop) will release nutrients back into the environment that will benefit plants. So yes, dog poop will fertilize the land.

Dog poo shouldn't be used as fertilizer because it is more acidic and does not contain the same sort of things as horse or cow manure has.

No, not really whilst they have the ability do break down in earth they also contain high levels of fats that cannot break down making them undesirable for general fertilisers

How can you stop your dog from eating mini piglet feces?

You are not going to be able to do this unless you simply keep the dog away from the feces. Why? Because to the dog the feces is a treat and taste good. The good news is that as long as the mini piglet is healthy, its feces is healthy, too, and it won't hurt the dog. Just make sure the dog has access to it's own good food, which is, of course, more nutritious than the feces. Then you can thank the dog for cleaning up the feces for you - just don't let him kiss you right afterward.
