Mealtimes can be the most important part in a dog's existence as these food motivated animals are voracious eaters. For dogs that are left alone most of the time, the arrival of the master with a bowl of kibble can be the highlight of their daily existence. Dogs in the wild use up most if their time in finding food. In the wild, dogs would not know when a prey will be found so that when there is food, these animals will eat until the stomach would almost burst. Dogs are mainly carnivorous but these adaptable animals can eat anything when prey is not available. To survive, dogs would make do with roots, berries, fruits and leaves.
The activity of hunting for food is no longer needed by modern day dogs. Dogs never go hungry as they are regularly provided with nutritious food by their owners. The habit of dogs to eat non-food items has continuously puzzled owners. It seems that dogs really need to supplement their diet with stones, barks, cloth and poop. A dog's tendency to eat leaves would be much better than eating poop and rotting animals.
Dogs that eat leaves are believed to be correcting a dietary imbalance. Dogs are noted to have a high level of intelligence, these animals also have the ability to know if something is amiss with their system. Dog owners that want to scrimp would feed the dog low quality foods that mostly contain cereal fillers, thus to fill up the diet's nutrient deficiency a dog would eat leaves.
We are aware of the dog's big appetite. Dogs are noted to have a curious personality. This curious nature often results to ingestion of non-edible objects. Due to the big appetites dogs would eat even spoiled food. Should we be surprised if our pets get stomach upsets every now and then? Nature is truly amazing as it has given these animals the capability to deal with a recurring health concern. Dogs only have to eat leaves to induce the expulsion of foreign and toxic substances from the stomach. Dogs wanting to attract attention would eat leaves. Owners would curb the leaf-eating habit by reprimanding the pet. Reprimands though and even punishment would be better than being ignored.
The habit to eat leaves is not really dangerous as long as what was eaten are not poisonous. To keep the pet safe, the owner has to find ways to curb the dog's inclination to eat leaves.
