    My dogs are year round grazers and never throw it back up. They just love eating grass.

    Fozzie just likes chewing on grass, and Gonzo never does. I can't remember the last time Gonzo threw up & Fozzie has never thrown up since we've had him... so I can't answer that.

    Eating grass when a dog needs to puke is a complete myth, lol.

    If it were true, my dogs would have some sort of serious disease!

    My dogs eat grass constantly, especially the boys. They really like it right after a good rain! They RARELY get sick over it though!

    Meg my labrador used to constantly be in the garden eating grass after we fed her, we always joked that she was bulimic but we got worried so we changed her food and she still done it, shes grown out of the habbit but she still does it every so often and she is rarely sick afterward
