FOXTAIL SEASON IS HERE!
Please keep your pets away from foxtails. They often get between toes, especially in fluffy dogs, in ear canals, under eyelids and up the nose. Please keep paws trimmed, avoid them as much as possible, check fur and in between toes after walks. Should your pet experience violent sneezing fits after a walk you may need to have your veterinarian sedate to ensure none are traveling up the nasal passage before it gets too far. Enjoy the sunny weather :)
