Eewww...Eating mouthfuls of dried cut up grass!

Okay so we have been walking in the neighborhood past the school where they cut the grass but leave behind the clippings. Well Lance just thinks that is the best treat ever! He will keep eating chunks of it. It is like he cant get enough of it! I do notice that his poop has been firmer since he has been eating the chards of grass.

I have heard that eating grass settles their stomach and can make them throw up. Lance does not throw up from eating grass and never has. Lance has eaten grass in our backyard but we dont leave behind the clippings so he grazes the grass, never seemed to do much, but the piles of grass watch out!

Has anyone experienced anything like this?? I joke with my husband that we need to start mulching our lawn! What is everyones thought on this, please share!

Never gets sick, the only concern I have is if other people put fertilizer, etc. on their lawn I think that could be pretty bad for them so we strongly discourage him from eating other people's grass (we have plenty of our own!)
