🌾🐾 Grass Seed Season is Here! 🐾🌾
Meet Sybil, a gorgeous girl who recently enjoyed a lovely trip to the beach. Shortly afterwards, she was brought in to see us with an irritated ear and was shaking her head due to discomfort.
We admitted Sybil for further investigation to check for a possible grass seed... and look what we found! 👀
A large grass seed was lodged deep inside her left ear. These tiny seeds can cause a huge amount of irritation and, if left untreated, can lead to more serious problems.
Thankfully, we were able to remove it, and we hope this is now the end of Sybil's head shaking and discomfort❤️
Grass seeds are very common at this time of year and can become trapped in ears, paws, eyes, and even under the skin. If your pet is suddenly shaking their head, licking their paws excessively, or seems uncomfortable after a walk, it's always worth getting them checked.
Keep an eye out this grass seed season and remember to check your pets after walks, especially in long grass and coastal areas.
We hope you're feeling much more comfortable now, Sybil! 🐶💕
