How do I train my dog not to eat dead insects, dead leaves, and other dog poo poo off the ground? :psyduck:

On our walks she will stop maybe every 30 seconds for something, and when she is running around playing in the backyard she sniffs spot to spot and then goes for whatever she finds. I've spent some time with some good treats trying to click her right before she goes for the object, but she just takes the string of treats I give and then ALWAYS goes back for what she wants. It's like all those dead things are the most appealing sources of food in the world to her and there's nothing I could do to top that. I could probably find even more impressive treats, but is that the right way I should go about this?

She is 6 years old and I just got her Sunday, so I'm going to ask her previous owners if this was normal behavior. Fortunately she's super trainable -- in the past three days I've taught her to loose leash walk, stay, go to bed, and sit when she sees her leash/wants to go out/wants to get pet. All because of PI!
