    Having not been to the vets for about 6 months I have been there with Bella twice in the last 2 weeks, and all because of wretched grass seeds :mad:

    On our walk today Bella started shaking her head and was still shaking at 4pm so I knew she had something in there. My vets were very good and fitted us in as an extra with vet who hadn't gone home yet! Bella hates the vets and sits on the table trembling so I was really dreading the possibility of her having to be sedated BUT she was so good and sat still (as still as possible when you are shaking!!) and the vet looked in both ears and managed to get the grass seed out. Apparently it was right down the ear canal and she wasn't sure if she would be able to get it out but she did and what a relief all around. Even the vet commented how good she was to sit so well and let her get it out. Phewwwwww :)

    That's good to hear :) Must have been terribly irritating to have the grass seed in there.
