Now we all know you can train dogs but did you know you can also train cats π
This little one belongs to a dog trainer Kats and Dogs who would practice on her cats whilst she was training herself.
we were so impressed we had film it to show you all π
We have been inundated with grass seed victims lately π₯Ή.
Today our vet Gav sedated and investigated a poor pooch who had a sore eye, and as suspected, once under sedation, Gav found the culprit - a grass seed was in the eye and had caused an ulcer.
*IF YOU LOOK CLOSELY, YOU CAN SEE THE PESKY SEED ON THE SURFACE OF THE EYE IN THE VIDEO*
The grass seed was carefully and successfully removed. With continued medication the patient should make a full recovery.
Please check your dog after each walk (ears, paws, face and any other areas you can) to try and help prevent them piercing the skin or entering the nose/eyes/ears.
We have also had a few cats with grass seed injuries, so please also check your kitties too!

It's grass seed season!
β οΈIt's grass seed season β οΈ
And this year, they are more visible as many commons around the country are being left to grow in a rewilding effort. This is why, as a dog owner, you need to be particularly careful when taking your dog for a walk! πΆ
These pointed grasses hide in long grass patches all around our parks. Their seeds are arrow-shaped and can enter a dogβs skin very easily! Once itβs in, they can travel through your petβs tissues, causing infections and serious other health issues. Grass seeds can also enter your dogβs nose and get lodged in their throat or enter their lungs, which can prove fatal if not dealt with in time.
Thatβs why itβs important to check for grass seeds after your dogβs daily walk and be aware of signs of discomfort such as:
- Sneezing
- Shaking their head a lot
- Gnawing at their paw
- Scratching their ear
- Squinting one eye
If you spot any of the signs above, donβt delay bring your pet to our surgery immediately! Grass seed removal is a painless, stress-free procedure taking place under anaesthetic by one our highly trained healthcare professionals.
If you suspect your pet may have a grass seed injury, call us as soon as you can 0208 858 5151 or bring them straight in if they are in distress!
