The best way to keep her from eating this is to take her out for a walk on a leash and not let her near it.
Dogs do like to eat the stool of other animals. Stool eating is so common in dogs that the Merck Veterinary manual lists it as normal behavior.
You may find doing some obedience training with her will help. One command in particulare 'leave it' is taught to help owners teach a pet not to grab things off the ground.
This shows one way to teach this.
