Get well soon, Foxy! I don't know about the peeing thing. What is a grass seed injury? I have never heard of that.

a grass seed injury is when the grass seed goes inside the skin and it keeps on going in deeper until it's taken out. grass seeds are designed to work one way: they only go down and can't come out by them selfs and thats why an operation is needed to get the grass seed out.

get well soon Foxy

our instructor did warn us about grass seeds. it is important to check if there is a grass seed anywhere in the body after you take your dog out as it can be dangerous once it gets into the system like Foxy.
