You're out on a walk and suddenly your pup is grazing like a tiny cow 😅🌿 Good news: grass eating is really common in dogs, and most of the time it's nothing to panic about. Some dogs like the taste and texture, some are bored, some are just curious, and for many it's plain old instinct.

What's worth watching is the grass itself. Lawns and parks may be treated with herbicides or pesticides, and grass can carry parasite eggs. Steer your dog away from unfamiliar patches and keep up with regular deworming. If the grazing becomes constant, or comes with repeated vomiting, loss of appetite or low energy, it's time for a vet visit 🩺

Is your dog a fan of the “grass salad”? What do you do when the munching starts? 👇
