Yes I think most of them do it given half a chance, I end up dragging Rocky away now as he would quite easily go through a whole field and I would have to change his name to Daisy, I'm not milking him though Laughing

I think it is normal for a lot of them. Almost every walk I have to drag my 2 away from bits of grass they are chewing Rolling Eyes

marley always tries to eat grass when he gets the chance, it's not unusual for any dog to do. it's just one of those things they do. people who say they do it because of an upset stomach are only carrying on an old wives tale as science really can't be sure either

Tilly loves it , in fact I think it almost forms part of her stable diet , not normally a problem for her as she's done it since she was ickle , we give up trying to stop her every time as its like taking her sweets away, though last week she did have a little difficulty finishing her poo when we were out for a walk and I had to help her out Blushing If I didn't know better I would say she is crossed with a cow Laughing
