First thing out the door, nose in the grass.
Every walk, the same stop. Sometimes it's a nibble. Sometimes it's a mouthful, and you're steering them away from the neighbor's sprayed lawn.
You're not overthinking it. Grass eating is common, and owners often notice it alongside other stomach signs. It's worth paying attention to.

So why do dogs eat grass?
Most dogs who eat grass are looking for help for their gut. Grass carries prebiotic fiber they aren't getting in their bowl, and a dog whose bowl is short on plant matter goes and finds it the only way they know how. We can help by adding healthier, food-based grasses, like the ones we eat, that are also fermented so they're easier to digest and break down. For most grass eaters, that's what ends the grazing.
Lawn grass is a poor source, though. It can carry sprays, fertilizer and parasites. What owners tell us is that when there are young, clean greens in the bowl, the lawn gets less attention. If it's gut-related, we can help.
Where to start
Your starting point
-
Start together
Boost™ + Youthful Grasses & Sprouts™
Ground it and optimize it.
Why it helps here: Dogs graze for the plant matter their ancestors got pre-digested from prey. Boost™ puts 18 fermented superfoods back in the bowl, and Youthful Grasses & Sprouts™ adds the seven young grasses and sprouts a grazer is actually after, fermented so they're easy to digest. Used together, the lawn loses its pull for most dogs.
Each at ¼ tsp, building to 1 tsp per 20 lb.

Only want one?
Youthful Grasses & Sprouts™
Start with Youthful Grasses & Sprouts™.
Why it helps here: Seven young grasses and sprouts, fermented so they're easy to absorb. If you only add one thing for a grass eater, add this: it's the closest thing to what they're looking for.

After 90 days
Sustain™ + Youthful Grasses & Sprouts™
Why it helps here: Keeps fermented plants and young greens in the bowl every day at the everyday price, so the grazing doesn't come back.

What to expect over 90 days
Every dog is different. If you see blood in the stool, stop and call your vet.
-
Weeks 1–2 · Ease in.
Start with a quarter dose and work up to the full teaspoon per 20 lb. Keep a simple tally of how often they graze on walks; you want a baseline to compare with.
-
Weeks 3–6 · Fewer stops.
Full dose, every day. Most owners see less grass eating now: shorter stops, fewer mouthfuls, and walks that keep moving.
-
Weeks 7–12 · The lawn loses its pull.
With young greens in the bowl every day, most dogs graze less and less. Owners often notice they stopped steering their dog away from lawns.
-
Day 90 · Gone, if it was gut-related.
Compare your tally with week one. If the grazing was the gut asking for plant matter, it's usually gone by now. Many owners move to Sustain™ and keep Youthful Grasses & Sprouts™ in the bowl.

Why 90 days? Grazing usually eases over weeks, not days, as the gut gets the plant matter it was after. Give it the full 90 before you judge it.

How Gussy's helps
The science, in plain words
Sprouted and fermented.
Sprouting concentrates nutrients. Fermentation breaks down cell walls so they're easier to absorb. You get both in one scoop.
Sulforaphane and chlorophyll.
Broccoli sprouts carry far more sulforaphane than grown broccoli, and young grasses are dense in chlorophyll and minerals. Harvested days into growing, then fermented so your dog can absorb them.

These studies explain the mechanisms. None of them tested Gussy's Gut® products.

Common questions
Is grass eating bad?
It's very common, and many dogs who do it are otherwise fine. If it comes with vomiting, appetite changes or weight loss, check with your vet.
Can I just grow wheatgrass?
You can. Youthful Grasses & Sprouts™ adds sprouts and fermentation and saves you the growing. It's concentrated from 6 1/2 lbs of ingredients.
How do I give it?
Mix about 1 teaspoon per 20 lb of body weight into your dog's food with a splash of water, once a day. Never serve the powder dry. Start with a quarter of the dose and build up over one to two weeks. Don't cook it; heat breaks down what fermentation built.
What if my dog won't eat it?
Stir it into something they love with a strong smell, like fish oil, tuna water, plain yogurt, kefir or coconut milk. If they still won't eat it, the 30-Day Taste Guarantee covers your first pack (see below).
What's the 30-Day Taste Guarantee?
If you're a new customer and your dog won't eat it, the first package you buy of any product gets a no-questions-asked refund, including shipping. Return it within 30 days of delivery with at least 50% still in the package. If your first order has more than one pack, only one pack can be returned, so we suggest starting with one.
