Eating Grass

As humans eat more fiber to regulate our intestinal activities, dogs eat grass! This behavior is completely instinctive and healthy. 

Plants and grasses have been part of dogs’ diets for centuries, and, especially if they have an upset stomach, this works as medication for them. Dogs may eat grass to help induce vomiting and provide relief from any digestive discomfort. 

Also, although this is a natural behavior, if your dog does this too often, you should consider taking them to a specialist, as it may indicate a nutritional deficiency.
