My Airedale

Question
My airedale is 10yrs old (a bitch). Can you tell me why she eats grass and is there anything I need to do to stop her? Usually she is sick soon after eating the grass.
Thanks for your help.

Answer
HI STEWART
DOGS SEEM TO EAT TALL GRASS UNCUT FOR DIGESTION OR SOUR STOMACH.
THIS MAKES THEM THROW UP AND FEEL BETTER.
I KEEP OUR GRASS SHORT AND WE BURN OFF AROUND THE ROCK GARDEN SO NO GRASS GROWS TALL ENOUGH TO EAT.  OUR MOWER ALSO HAS A BAGGER.
GIVE THE DOG A TSP OF PEPTO IF U FEEL IT HAS A STOMACH UPSET.
I GIVE MY PUPS THIS WHEN THEY GET UPSET OR A REACTION TO SHOTS, ETC.
IT IS JUST TEMPETING FOR A DOG TO GO TO GRASS THEY CAN CHEW ON TALL ENOUGH TO DO THIS, SO JUST KEEP IT TRIMMED AND CUT AND SHE WILL NOT BE ABLE TO EAT IT.
