Dogs eat bugs for a variety of reasons, the most common being protein consumption. Gross to you and I but they are dogs. similar to the reasons some dogs eat feces. They are seeking nutrients. If the dog starts to do it more increasingly you would want to take action, reevaluate their Diet and consult your vet if it persists or gets worse.
