Dog Training Grass

[simpleaffiliate source="chitika" results="0"][/simpleaffiliate]

Is it true that dogs eat grass to make themselves throw up?

If so, is it because their stomachs are upset? When my dog eats grass, he throws up later in the day and it's like water with some blades of grass in it. I know this because he always throws up on my bed. Why on my bed? Is he sending me a message? Is there some way I can train him to throw up somewhere else? What would happen if I prevent him from eating grass - would that keep him from throwing up? Would there be any reason why I should not prevent him from eating grass?
Thanks for any advice.

I read somewhere (a while back so I don't recall where) that a lot of the lawn grasses (& weeds) that dogs usually have access to, have tiny little barbs on them, which irritate their stomachs. . .

Dogs are supposed to eat *some* plants, so I give my dogs a small helping of Spirulina with each meal. Their coats are much softer, and I *think* I've noticed less grass-eating behavior from them.

Sometimes I think dogs eat grass when they are hungry and nothing else acceptable is available for them to eat. I have wondered whether --at least sometimes-- it is out of a desire for the nutrients the grasses contain. . . Some people grow special kinds of grass that don't cause their pets to vomit, so they can eat it without having to vomit. I would like to try that sometime, as I like to provide the necessities for my pets.
