Mike and Jujube are back with something every dog owner needs to hear. 🐾

"Did you know that just because your dog eats a little bit of grass when you're out on your walks doesn't mean something is wrong? Dogs are instinctively programmed to eat a little bit of fiber as part of their diet. It helps with their gastrointestinal system.

In fact, in less than 10% of cases have they found that dogs that are eating grass are actually sick. In less than 25% of cases, they found that dogs that are eating grass are actually vomiting. It was a common misperception for years that dogs ate grass to make themselves vomit because they were sick. This is not actually true.

Now, a lot of companies will use this to say that if your dog's eating any grass whatsoever, buy our product, essentially. That's not necessarily the case. And yes, if your dog is eating grass in large quantities, and they have diarrhea, they're vomiting, skin rashes, take your dog to the vet and get them checked out. But don't automatically assume that just because your dog is eating a little bit of grass that they are sick."
