Seasonal hazard alert: This spring and summer, keep an eye out for grass seeds potentially becoming stuck in your dog’s fur, eyes or ears. 🌾
When grass seeds dry out, they become like tiny arrowheads with sharp tips and one-way barbs, and can gradually migrate deep into soft tissues, causing severe infections. ⚠️
Try to steer clear of tall nature strips or areas with long, unmown grass, and always check your dog over after outdoor play for any grass seeds trying to hitch a ride. 🔎
If you suspect your pet might have a grass seed injury, it’s best to book a prompt check-up with our team.
