Do you know about Foxtails?

This blog post is for your dogs! I put together a bunch of slides all about the foxtail plant that is in Utah and a lot of the western states that my husband and I were not aware of. Unfortunately, our golden retriever had to get 4 foxtails removed from his paws because we did not know this was something we needed to be looking out for when we take him out hiking or really do anything in the outdoors. I am glad to say he is recovering well but I wanted to inform you so that you can be aware of these plants and check your dogs after they are outside too. These plants are ruthless and can be such a pain so it is vital you know what to look for, how to keep your dog protected, and how to check them out to keep them safe. Read through these slides so you are prepared and have a conversation with your vet about them too. Foxtails can be deadly to your pup so you don't want to take this lightly. Know now so you are prepared for the future and you can have long lasting memories with your fur baby! xoxo Kimmy
