🌾 Grass Seed Season is Here! 🐶🐱
At this time of year, we see more pets with painful grass seeds lodged in their paws, ears, eyes and coats.
🌿 Living in such a beautiful rural area means plenty of adventures, but it also means grass seeds are something to watch out for at this time of year.
These tiny seeds can quickly work their way under the skin, causing pain, swelling and infection.
✅ Help protect your pet by:
• Checking paws, ears and coats after every walk.
• Keeping fur around paws and ears trimmed.
• Avoiding long, dry grass where possible.
• Contacting us if your pet is suddenly shaking their head, licking a paw excessively, limping or has a swollen, sore area.
📞 If you think your pet may have a grass seed, give us a call – the sooner it’s found, the easier it is to remove.
