Is it OK for a dog to eat...

A couple of things, firstly:

Grass! I've heard it's like a doggy natural remedy for something, but Jake seems to munch it all the time when we're out for a walk, especially when he's had a paddle in the brook. Also, today I cut the grass and he was following me around grabbing mouthfuls of clippings!

Cheese. Jake goes mad for it! We let him have a bit when we get some out of the fridge for a sarnie or whatever. As it's dairy based, is it advisable to let him have cheese? (Cheddar of course. Haven't tried him with Stilton yet. )

Teagan eats so much grass when I mow the lawn!
Yep, they say dogs eat grass to help their tummies.

Cheese is fine for dogs. A lot of people use cheese as a treat when training etc
Most dogs go crazy for it! I know mine do!

My think they are home on the range - they would graze grass all day if I'd let them the cats are the same they sit chewing on grass.
And cheese - they adore cheese anysort - they are not fussed - they even eat Danish Blue - Urhgggh

A couple of mine eat so much grass I call them sheep. Doesn't make them throw-up either.

Cheese seems to be very popular with all dogs...just like any people food, moderation is key, but you'll know how much your dog can handle. If the squits start...cut back.

Star only eats grass when she has an upset tummy but cheese is a favourite for a treat.

I have got a goat, called Blackie, the little girl next door is always telling him he's not a cow . He rips it up of the lawn and stands there munching away for a good ten minutes of so.
