It's not really "good" for them to do it, but it's not necessarily bad either. Keep in mind, some plants are toxic, and some grasses have sharp edges that could hurt the dog. Vets can't even agree on why they do this. Some are thought to do it because of an upset stomach or something missing in the diet. Is he vomitting everytime he does this? If so, you need to see the vet to address potential problems from the vomitting. As far as doing it every day, a checkup or at least talking to your vet wouldn't be a bad idea. They'll let you know if that's normal for him or if there could be something going on.

Possibly a problem with your dogs diet, maybe switch to a healthier food?

It's lacking vitamins & minerals in it's diet. Switch to a food that has meat as its main ingredient & not corn meal.

I've always heard that if a dog chews grass it's because they have an upset stomach. I dunno. Is it's food okay?
