Dogs Eat Grass -- Acid Reflux

Cesar's Way | Why dogs eat grass — and how to prevent it -- Stomach distress -- Some experts believe that grass is a form of self-medication. When your dog has tummy troubles, he turns to grass for relief. This is more likely if the behavior starts suddenly or if your dog is very anxious about needing to eat the grass, often extending his neck and making swallowing motions, and then vomiting afterwards. But most studies have found that this is actually quite rare — less than 25 percent of dogs vomit after eating grass and only 10 percent showed signs of illness beforehand. Prevention: In some cases, the stomach distress can be a sign of something more serious, like gastric reflux or inflammatory bowel disease, so it’s worth calling your veterinarian for advice. https://www.cesarsway.com/dog-behavio...
