Why Do Dogs Eat Grass... Your Dog Questions Answered

Why Dogs Eat Grass
- Your dog has an upset stomach and is trying to induce vomiting by eating the grass
- It smells good, so they want to see what it tastes like - dogs do more looking with their mouths than they do their eyes
- Your dog may be missing something nutritionally (maybe fiber). This could most likely be the case if your dog is advancing in years, as the diet of an older dog needs to be different from that of a puppy or younger adult dog
If you are worried about your dog's grass eating antics, talk to your vet. He or she will be able to offer you advice based on an examination of your dog.

One of my dogs tends to eat grass, but never seems to have any digestive problems. I think he just likes the taste of grass. Nice lens.

We have a nine year old English Bulldog that loves to eat grass. We used to worry that it was her stomach but now I think she just likes the smell and texture. Nice lens. Thanks for the info.

I always joke that they're just stopping at an appealing doggy salad bar :)
