Yeah, I don't agree with that article. Looks like it's sponsored by pet food companies. Dogs ARE carnivores . Lol!
My guys don't eat grass either .

All mine eat grass now and then. I also agree that you cant trust the article since its sponsored by a pet food company. Dogs are carnivores

I read on a Raw chat forum that dogs who eat grass need Omega 3 fatty acid. I do supplement with Salmon oil...but mine still like to graze

Sometimes I think dogs eat grass simply because it tastes good.
