Exclamation Trixie eating lots of Grass

Trixie is eating way more grass than normal.

My question is would the grass turn her pooh black??

My mum has said it would but I can't find any information of it online.

Re: Trixie eating lots of Grass

Sorry, I looked but didnt respond before because I didnt think I could be much help and hoped that someone would be along shortly that could.

Cant comment on the black pooh but my first thought was that something isnt right if she is eating grass. To me that says her tum is troubling her but I could be wrong

I know she has a upset tum, she's been to the vets 4 times this week

I'm just beginning to worry a little, my mum thinks she is fine, my vet doesn't know what is up!! I think it might be colitis with something else.

Thanks

Re: Trixie eating lots of Grass

I have just googled Black poo in dogs,and most of the answers say that there must be blood in the poo.

If it makes you feel any better Duke eats tree bark sometimes and his poop is fine Though it does resemble tumbleweed
