Last summer, Carolyn Barton noticed something was off with her dog Abby, after she had come in from her family’s backyard in the Rosewood neighbourhood.

“She had a really weird cough for about a day, and it was all the time and all night long,” said Barton.

Natasha Sabin with the VCA Canada Central Animal Hospital says they generally see “a few in the fall” but a higher number of dogs than normal are being brought in with foxtail. “A fairly sudden onset of clinical signs, and those signs tend to be coughing, the dog may be drooling more than normal, they may be swallowing repeatedly, they may actually even kind of bring up some phlegm if they're coughing.”
