Did You Know? 🌾🐶

Foxtails may look like harmless grass, but they can be dangerous for dogs! Here are some fascinating (and alarming) facts about these pesky plants:

🔸 Designed to Travel – Foxtails have barbed seed heads that easily attach to fur, clothing, and even skin. Once embedded, they keep moving forward and never come out on their own.

🔸 Hidden Dangers – These tiny seeds can burrow into a dog’s ears, nose, eyes, paws, and even internal organs, causing serious infections or worse.

🔸 No Season is Safe – While foxtails are most common in summer and fall, dried seeds can linger year-round in warm climates.

🔸 Vet Bills Can Skyrocket – A single foxtail lodged in the wrong place can lead to costly surgeries. Prevention is always better than treatment!

🔸 They’re Everywhere! – Found across North America, especially in dry grassy areas, trails, parks, and even your own backyard.

Testimonial Tuesday 🐕❤🙏

When we read stories like this, it reinforces why we feel so strongly about our purpose and our product. It hurts our heart when we hear a dog died and that it could have been prevented. Conversely, our heart warms when we hear that a dog survives a harrowing event and can use the OutFox Field Guard to prevent future issues. Thank you for sharing, Kathy ❤️

This is going to be a long post about the great then worrisome weekend at Silver Bay KC Del Mar Fairgrounds.
My young dog Tommy was entered in rally and started acting very strange on Saturday morning. I went into my first class and he was almost disoriented. I pulled him from the rest of the day and watched him …he laid down, was lethargic, very glassy eyed and drooling.
Long story short he spent a day the vets office. His x-ray showed that the gut motility had completely stopped likely because of whatever he had ingested. We will never know exactly what it was, but the vet tends to think that it was either some kind of ma*****na (gummy) or possibly some kind of op**te. There is no place to take your dogs there to the bathroom except in the bushes.I am very careful and watch them like a hawk, but that doesn’t mean they can’t grab something while they’re sniffing and swallow it quickly. Fortunately, there was no long-term damage to his liver or kidneys, and after we got things moving, he cleared his entire bowel out of any leftover toxins. He is once again bright eyed and bushy tailed. I’m feeding him very carefully small meals because his digestion was so compromised. He said he was fine to take to the shows this weekend….Just make sure that he feels good.
At home and on walks I use an OutFox Field Guard mask on my dogs. They are created to keep FoxTails out of the face and ears, but I use them so that the dogs do not pick up anything and ingest something they shouldn’t…. now they will be on at the dog show. There is a friend at our hunting group that lost his golden several weeks ago from him eating coyote s**t that had sago palm seeds in it. It was devastating💔 please be ever vigilant. I know I’m going to even be more so!

🚨 Why Are Foxtails So Dangerous for Dogs? 🚨

If you’re a dog owner, you NEED to know about foxtails — a hidden outdoor danger that can cause serious harm to your pup.

🌾 What Are Foxtails?
Foxtails are grass-like weeds with sharp, barbed seed heads that easily break off and latch onto dogs' fur, paws, ears, eyes, nose — even under the skin! 😳

⚠️ Why Are They So Dangerous?
👉 They don't stop moving. Once attached, foxtails burrow deeper into your dog's body.
👉 They can cause serious infections or abscesses if not removed.
👉 In severe cases, they can puncture organs or travel through the bloodstream.
👉 Emergency surgery may be required if a foxtail goes undetected.

💡 Signs Your Dog May Have a Foxtail:
🐶 Excessive licking or biting paws
🐶 Head shaking or scratching ears
🐶 Sudden swelling or limping
🐶 Difficulty breathing (if inhaled)

🔒 How to Protect Your Dog:
✔️ Avoid tall grassy areas during foxtail season.
✔️ Always check your dog’s paws, ears, and body after outdoor adventures.
✔️ Use protective gear like the OutFox Field Guard to prevent foxtail pe*******on.

👉 Don’t let foxtails ruin your dog’s outdoor fun! The OutFox Field Guard offers full head and face protection, allowing your dog to enjoy nature safely. 🌿🐕

The OutFox® Field Guard Story

For years, Diane enjoyed hiking with her dogs in the open spaces and parks in the Bay Area where foxtails are prevalent during much of the year; however, with their fun and adventure came the risk of dangerous foxtail injuries for her dogs.

After her dogs’ many painful experiences of getting foxtails in their eyes, ears, and noses and after numerous trips to the vet, Diane was determined to find a way to keep her dogs safe on their hikes. She knew the solution would be something that would shield her dogs’ faces—something to act as a barrier against foxtails. Using her technical design experience, she invented the OutFox® Field Guard and made it available to the public in 2010.

Top Priority - Comfort and Protection

As Diane’s top priority was to make a guard that would be as comfortable as possible for dogs, she thoughtfully designed every aspect of the Field Guard with meticulous care and detail—from the color, to the material, to the form. Her idea was to create a black mesh hood that covers and protects the dog’s entire head. She chose the color black because it is the easiest to see through while also serving as a sunshade. After a long search for the perfect material for comfort and function, she finally found a mesh that was non-abrasive and held its shape well. She placed all of the seam edges on the outside of the guard so the dog would have the smoothest side of the hood next to its head. Diane also made the guard large enough so that it would touch the dog as little as possible. An elasticized opening made it easy for owners to slip the Field Guard on and off without having to adjust it every time.
