What are these? Found them on my dog!
Hello. They look like a type of grass seed or plant awn. Many plants will have wicked looking "hooks" that attach to a passing bird or animal. This helps to disburse the plants as far as possible. Thanks for using Boop by Petco.

Are there any flowers that are toxic to dogs? My Dixie has a feast and its so hard to pull her away, especially Dandelions. And with bees on the rise I fear her getting stung. What will help with her to stop eating flowers??
Hello, and thanks for your question. Dandelions are pretty safe, but there are some flowers that are toxic to varying degrees. Pet Poison Helpline is a good resource with lots of information on a variety of potential toxins; here's a list of some common house and garden plants that can be toxic: https://www.petpoisonhelpline.com/pet-owners/basics/top-10-plants-poisonous-to-pets/ Bee stings can certainly happen, and if Dixie should encounter a bee sting, you could help prevent an allergic reaction by giving benadryl, but I'd double check with your vet before giving any medication. Here's a link to some more information on benadryl in dogs: https://www.petcoach.co/canigive/dog/benadryl/ As far as keeping Dixie from eating flowers - the best way is to simply remove any potential flowers from the spaces where she's allowed to be, and put up a barrier to keep her away from any flowers you don't want her eating! It's nearly impossible to teach our pets not to eat things they can get ah

My indoor only cat overgrooms stomach and elbows. She is on Revolution. She also scratches her neck and head a lot, not enough to cause sores. I've tried 3 months on a limited ingredient diet with no change. She will not eat diets of rabbit, duck or
If you have been through a strict novel protein diet trial with no improvement, a food allergy is unlikely. It is possible that Dandy Lion has an allergy to something in the environment or potentially something like thyroid disease. I would recommend making an appointment with your veterinarian to have her skin examined and to discuss treatment options. While the probiotic probably won't hurt, there is not evidence that probiotics help with skin diseases.

I have a 15 year old Maine Coon with congestive heart failure. He's currently on furosemide, pimobendan and plavix. I was wondering if I could give him dandelion and or milk thistle to help his condition even more?
No, it is not recommended to use any other medications or herbal remedies. Often time herbal remedies interfere with the medications - there have not been enough studies done on this so I would not risk it. Just continue to give the medications as prescribed by your vet. Those are the best treatments for his condition.

Hi please can you identify this? SOMETHING alive inside this burr/seed? the black point goes in+out. found on my long haired cat, also small round ones like grass seeds but white larvae?) or bug curled into ball? have you ever heard of caterpillar
Hi there. Thanks for using Boop by Petco and for posting the photos! This just looks like plant material to me. Maybe something in the cocklebur family? I don't see the "alive" thing you are referring to. Honestly, I think if there is something alive in the seed then it is just coincidence it is on your cat. I think the burr just got stuck in the fur. I have never heard of caterpillars coming out of any hair. If it is in the burr on your cat it is only because it is stuck in the fur. Not because it is "living" there. I recommend you just keep him brushed out daily. If you are really worried you can also take these things into your vet so they can see them. They may know more about these since they are local. Hope this helps. Best wishes!
