Growing wheatgrass for dogs – Baltimore Dogs | Examiner.com.

One thing that I love about my garden is the random surprises that it brings me. I do not always spend time observing what goes on in my pots.  This is especially so during the winter months.

Last summer, I spread some wheatgrass seeds in a pot and pretty much just let it be. Well after some time, the wheatgrass grew and some weeds made a home in the pot as well. I wasn’t sure if the wheatgrass was still good (don’t ask me why) so I just left it there. I figured I would get rid of it when I replanted the garden in the spring. Well lo and behold my little princess dog Ginger has been gnawing on the wheatgrass in the morning. I am not sure of how long she has been enjoying her morning wheatgrass but I watched her eat it and judging by the way her face was turned up to the sun and her playful smacking, she seemed to like it a lot.  Generally, when Ginger eats the weeds that grow around the fence, she does it to purge what’s ailing her tummy. With the wheatgrass she is surely eating it for simple nourishment. So I write this note to suggest to other gardeners that wheatgrass is a good addition to any garden; and this is especially so if you have dogs or cats.
