Okay, so I know a lot of people say that a dog only eats grass if they want to make themselves sick, however, that can depend on the dog. I have two and they both have eaten grass all their lives long and they do not get sick. They do this everytime they go outside and their mother and father apparently also do. So don't get too worried if your dog is eating grass and not throwing up.

They eat grass to calm there stomachs. Licking the air is a different story. It might have something to do with enhancing sent maybe.

dogs lick the air to mosten their nose and to taste the air like a snake, the olfactory "smelling" nerves and the taste buds all route to the same place in the brain in both humans and dogs, so licking the air gives them a better sniff. dogs eat grass to sooth an upset stomache or to induce vomiting, some dogs just like grass, it won't hurt them
