Well it’s spring in my boondocking lot. Been here since October. The fox tails are a bit of a problem. Any recommendations? I get home groomer onc a month.

Start treating the grassy area with pre-emergence in the spring to get rid of the foxtail. The seeds can actually burrow into their skin if not caught and removed quickly which can be extremely painful. A slicker brush should remove surface seeds fairly easy but you will probably need to go back through him with a bristle brush after the slicker to pull any that have already started to work down through the fur back up to the surface. A high velocity blow dryer might fluff them out of his coat if you really wanted to invest but I'm not 100% on that.
