Dexter has been eating grass for a couple of days. He is eating and behaving normally but the grass has come out in his poo. Does anyone else's 'poo do this?

 

[DONNA]

Yep Buddy eats it all the time ,dont know the reason sorry

Olive eats grass once in a while. I've known dogs who eat grass and then vomit it up, but Olive just eats it and then i guess poops it out!

It's my understanding that it helps settle their stomachs. I wouldn't worry too much about it.

the only prblem can be when they eat it and it gets stuck in their bum! I've had to pull a blade out once......................never again x_x (Vincents bum, not anyone elses ¬_¬)

Very amusing

I get the feeling that dogs know what they are doing when they eat grass - it is a dog thing - no business of us humans

Remember hearing vet Bruce Fogal (Ben Fogal's dad) on Radio 2 once saying perfectly normal for dogs to eat grass they just fancy a bit of salad!

I know cats do it to aid their digestion. Perhaps it's the same for dogs?

My dog walker was saying she has the same with her Viszla. He had eaten reedy type grass and she said it was waving around behind him and he couldn't work out what it was!!!!

 

[M&M's mummy]

Yes from Monty have had to pull out grass, small twiggy bits and poo

The worst being stuck poo- as he struggled to push and nothing happened and he just looked up at me all helpless and sad - so had no alternative but to put a bag over my hand and help him out!!!! ( have done this on more than one occasion).

Oh the joys of poo ownership!!! literally
