The signs of a grass seed varies greatly.
Prevention Better Than Cure
If possible, prevent your dog from entering areas of long grass that may be seeding. This, obviously presents a problem for the working dog who spends his life in these areas. Consider these measures then to help prevent the initial attachment of a grass seed:
Use an otoscope to light and magnify the ear canal of your pet. This will allow you to perhaps remove it before it has the time to work its way further into the ear canal causing more problems and expense....not to mention time wasted in a trip to the vet.
Aussie Otoscopes offer 3 Vet Otoscopes. The slimline model has an LED module as its light source. The LED module is very durable and is guarenteed to never burn out as there is no filament to break.
There are two Halogen Professional Vet Otosocpes. Click on a picture to find out jor to order that item.
