🚨 FOXTAILS ARE DANGEROUS‼️

Please keep your dog out of overgrown grassy areas & be vigilant in checking your dog’s fur for seeds. Be sure to check the fur between their toes. The most dangerous exposure is when dogs inhale a barbed seed.  This can happen if your dog runs with its mouth wide open in a field of foxtails. Inhaled foxtail seeds can wind up in the lower airways of your dog’s lungs.
