My 10 week old Toy Poodle eats grass.?

Is this ok? I heard different rumors one person I spoke to says its ok because it helps their stomach when they are sick others say its bad for puppies. When I take him out he runs right to the grass and starts eating help!!!

    If he's eating a goodly amount, it means he has a bad stomach. Look at his poo (gross I know) and see if it looks normal. IE has no blood, is fairly solid and doesn't stink. If any of those are apparent, take your dog to the vet. Eating a little bit of grass is OK, but not a lot. It could be that his stomach isn't agreeing with his food. If you have him on a generic low quality food, you should consider strongly a premium brand, like Wellness or Nutrscience.

    Possibly an upset stomach, but try to deter him from that. I have a poodle he also likes to eat grass, then he vomits. Maybe a vitaman deficiency. Look into Pet Tabs.

    Your puppy either has a very bad stomach ache, or she just likes the taste of grass. Don't worry, my dog grazes too.

    His stomach must be hurting. Usually when dogs eat grass, it's when they want to throw up. My dogs do it all the time; no big deal.

    You might want to ask a vet about what that does to a dogs' stomach. Try to reaseach what types of things grass has in it. ask a vet if any of those things are bad for dogs!!!

    Hope this Helps!!!

    Nothing to worry about, my dogs love to "graze" too, just keep puppy outside so he doesn't throw up all over the house. It's a natural cleansing system for dogs.

    lol my dog lived to be seventeen and still ate grass. don't worry it might make it throw up a little but other then that it won't hurt it at all.
