Dog owners across the country are facing skyrocketing vet bills as wild, overgrown grass from initiatives like “No Mow May” turns into a painful nightmare for pets. Dry weather causes sharp foxtail seeds to embed deep in dogs’ skin, ears, and even lungs—especially targeting long-haired or floppy-eared breeds. What started as an eco-friendly effort is now sparking outrage, with some owners spending nearly $2,000 on emergency surgeries. Veterinarians report a surge in cases, with seeds traveling to dangerous internal areas. Councils defend their green policies, but pet parents are demanding better balance—before more dogs suffer.
