Grass Seed Season is Here!
As the weather warms up, grass seeds become a common hazard for our pets. These pointed seeds easily get caught in fur and migrate further into the skin, ears, eyes, and nose causing discomfort, inflammation and infection if left untreated.
After your pet spends time outside, take a few minutes to check your pet for grass seeds. Run your fingers through their fur, paying extra attention to between their toes, around their ears, eyes and nose.
As pictured, we recently removed this large grass seed from Moggs’ little nose! 🌾
Signs of grass seed irritation in your pet can include excessive licking, swelling, redness, limping, head shaking and sneezing.
