POLEN IS HERE


Kringle was helping his mom in the garden.  He looks so good.  His mom has done such a great job in helping him heal. 
She noticed he has a golden glow. It was pollen!  
Kris, now Eddie, has itches.  The pollen gets walked on. Then the dogs lick their paws and ingest the pollen. Ugh. Some dogs take 1/2 a Zyrtec.  Some take apoquel.  Some get a cytopoint shot to help w allergies.  (Of course, always consult w your vet.). 
Mistletoe (who is sitting on dog laundry) gets itchy w the spring things growing.  She hops around in the ivy and border grass.  And leaves. We have many trees and she brings them in on her tail. Yay. 
Gidget is peeking around the door. Are you hiding from pollen? 😜 I would if I could. 
Dickens skin is still healing and I hope the pollen doesn’t make it worse.   I’ll be glad when we get rain and it washes away.  The dogs will be glad, too.

Oh pollen is shocking and the worst garden plant is what we call Wandering Jew or Tradescantia fluminensis is so bad for dogs.
When we came to our home many years ago they had it in the garden and its a terror to remove too! Even a tiny bit can start again when you weed it out but we finally got it all out ! Terrible allergies !!!
Never grow it !
