It's not going to hurt them, dogs have been eating grass for years...My 2 outside dogs have been eating it quite a lot lately..As long as you don't have any pesticides down that would hurt him

Mine want to eat grass, too, but I really don't like it when they do. I've had to pull long blades of grass out of their throats because they didn't chew it well enough and were gagging.

Very informational link. I always thought dogs chewed grass to settle their stomachs
