Default Lab eating Grass

I feed my lab Diamond's High Energy, Sportind Dog 30/20 mix....but he's alway's eating grass all day....Does that mean he's lacking in something..??

Nope. It just means he feels like pukin', that's all. They all do it sometimes. Instead of feeding my lab a salad at dinner time, I just let him have a few bites out of the back yard.
Nothing to worry about. It's normal.

Wayne 1,

When the Shooter man eats grass, it's totally normal. Casey will graze a bit once in awhile, but when he thinks he is under stress (like a Field Test) he grazes more.

You been out for Grouse? Only a week till Fall Turkey - how bout them?
