Grass Seeds: Tiny Threats for Dogs | Leicester News

Grass seeds may seem harmless, but this summer they’re causing serious trouble for dogs—especially from May through October. Tiny, barbed seeds can sneak into fur and burrow into paws, ears, and eyes, leading to limping, sneezing, or even eye closure. Vets are seeing painful cases requiring sedation. All breeds are at risk, but spaniels might be more prone. Don’t wait for symptoms—check your pup after every walk and remove seeds immediately. Swap walking routes if grass is long to reduce exposure and give your dog new sensory fun. Stay proactive to keep them safe and happy.
