Why does my dog eat grass?

Dogs eat grass for a number of reasons [1], ranging from fiber cravings to stomach troubles [1].

It may also just be they like the way it tastes [1].

Additionally, some vets believe dogs eat grass because they're bored [2], stressed, anxious, or upset about something.

Eating grass can also be an instinctive behavior, supplementing a missing nutrient, or a way for a dog to soothe an upset stomach.

It is important to keep an eye on your dog's grass-eating habit, as excessive grass consumption can lead to health issues such as indigestion and gastrointestinal distress.

It is also possible that your dog's grass-eating habit may be a sign of an underlying medical issue, such as nutrient deficiencies or gastrointestinal problems.

If your dog is eating grass excessively, you should take them to the vet to determine the cause.
