After a wet winter season, blooms are blossoming across San Diego County. But among the pretty petals are some worrisome weeds that could pose a danger to your pets.
Foxtail grass is a common weed-type grass that is in abundance in San Diego County but veterinarians say these pokey plants can pose a danger to dogs if they attach to a dog's skin and warn pet owners to keep their furry friends away from these plants.
Even more dangerous than getting in a dog’s fur, foxtails can become hazardous if lodged in a dog’s nose and ears, Hoard explains. “When they breathe it up their nose, they’re immediately so uncomfortable and sneezing and trying to get it out so the owner can tell something is going on and they need to see a veterinarian,” Dr. Hoard said.
