Bichon Frise: Why Does Your Bichon Eat Grass?

by: tom antion | Total views: 10 | Word Count: 354

Does your Bichon Frise eat grass when he/she's not feeling well? Ever wonder why? The experts don't know for sure. They think it might be that they like the taste or they eat it in order to vomit. Probably both are right, but there are other more important reasons why.
Most people aren't aware that throughout history indigenous peoples and all mammals have turned to grasses and green plants to recover from illnesses. Green plants are green because they contain high amounts of chlorophyll. And what does chlorophyll do for the body?

**inactivates pathogenic bacteria and fungi
**neutralizes toxins, purifying the body
**enriches the blood (chlorophyll and hemoglobin are nearly identical)
**contains a rich mixture of vitamins, minerals, proteins, fatty and nucleic acids, and nutrients to strengthen the immune system and prevent premature aging.
**provides large amounts of digestive enzymes
As you can see from this listing, it pretty well covers what your Bicon Frise needs to stay healthy. And if there are pathogens or toxins in the stomach making your dog sick and not wanting to eat, it becomes obvious why he/she will attempt to find some grass.
To help your Bichon Frise, whether it's a tummy-ache or preventively building health, keep several sources of "wonder" green powders on hand. Chlorophyll, spirulina, wheatgrass, barley grass, and chlorella are all available on the Internet or in health food stores. They can be sprinkled on or in your Bichon's food or, if he/she is not eating, you can add a bit of water and administer the remedy with a medicine syringe available at pet stores. Considering all of the health benefits of greens, you may want to join your Bichon Frise and try some yourself!

The nutritional information provided on this website has been thoroughly researched and practiced daily with our own very precious Bichon- we have seen fantastic improvements in Maggie's health with the organic raw food diet we advocate. However, we do advise you to take responsibility for educating yourself further on this topic before making changes in your dog's diet. We are not responsible for any misinterpretation of the information offered here.
