BC Crazy Posted February 25, 2012 Share Posted February 25, 2012 I have to constantly remind my 4 border collies that they are sheep dogs not sheep :laugh: :laugh: :laugh: :laugh: :laugh: Same here. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AussieDog Posted February 25, 2012 Share Posted February 25, 2012 My two eat grass as well - only occasionally throwing it up. My cat also munches on it. Strange creatures. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kathy74 Posted February 25, 2012 Share Posted February 25, 2012 My 2 eat grass on a daily basis as well but only will eat a certain type of grass. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Starkehre Posted February 25, 2012 Share Posted February 25, 2012 (edited) Big grazers here also. Occasionally they will do it to vomit up a piece of bone, but mostly because they enjoy it. I never worry. One of my "well intending" friends says mine graze because they don't get fed enough Of course her dog is so fat it can barely walk She worries when her dog grazes and feeds it more.

milly2 Posted February 25, 2012 Share Posted February 25, 2012 Our shepherd likes eating grass, and sometimes she is sick afterwards. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
koalathebear Posted February 26, 2012 Share Posted February 26, 2012 Elbie has never been a grass-eater but Hoover has been a grass grazer since he was a young pup. He's looking spethal because he's being photographed while chewing, not because the grass is of the narcotic variety :laugh: It never seems to upset his tummy - I think he does it for fun. The only downside is that sometimes long strands of grass lead to danglers and then human intervention is needed to pull things out Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dotdashdot Posted February 26, 2012 Share Posted February 26, 2012 The only downside is that sometimes long strands of grass lead to danglers and then human intervention is needed to pull things out :laugh: I've had to *cough* intervene a few times....Cleo was spinning around trying to get it and going crazy. It was awkward to say the least to pull it out. She loves her grass though, but yes, only the taller, young growth that you find around fences and the like, not just lawn grass Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fuzzy82 Posted February 26, 2012 Share Posted February 26, 2012 Mine eat a bit of grass regularly, but the only time they actually graze obsessively is when they have an upset tummy, and when they do it I know I'll be up numerous times during the night to let them out. At least I get some warning. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LOLAFOLATA Posted February 28, 2012 Author Share Posted February 28, 2012 Looks like I'll be keeping the pet grass for my lot. :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
