As per http://www.dogs-101.biz/why-do-dogs-eat-grass Click for more information.

Dogs eat grass for the nutrients.

Sometimes it seems that a dog will seek out and use grass as a natural remedy for an upset stomach and it seems that eating grass may do the trick. When a dog eats grass, the grass blade tickles the throat and stomach lining. This sensation, may cause the dog to vomit, especially if the grass is gulped down rather than chewed.
