Yes it is dreaded Grass Seed Season again.

Those pesky thorns that are nature’s way of creating havoc on your pets are dried out and ready to attack the next time your pet passes through the grass. This year is shaping up to be a bad season due to the wet creating excessive growth of grass, so there are more seeds out there and the cooler weather has made the season fall a little later than normal.

Areas to look out for :

-          Between the toes and pads of feet

-          Eyes

-          Ears (may result in head shaking)

-          Noses (may result in sneezing)

-          Flanks (especially of long haired dogs)

What you can do

-          Avoid walking in areas where you can see grass seeds

-          Check your pet immediately after walks

-          Keep your lawn mown to avoid seed formation

-          Keep your dog clipped short to make it easier to find them

-          Our groomers will trim feet as “Poodle feet” which makes just the feet short to avoid seeds in toes
