Autumn is a wonderful time of year for long walks with your dog. However, the colourful leaves and falling fruit also bring dangers with them. Burrs, chestnuts and other natural materials can be unpleasant and even dangerous for dogs.

Burrs in fur: be careful when removing them

Burdock in fur symbolises Nutrilabs Burrs are particularly stubborn in dogs’ fur. While they are relatively easy to remove from dogs with short fur, they can become deeply entangled in the fur of long-haired breeds. Removal can be unpleasant for the dog, so it is important to proceed with caution. But be careful: if dogs try to remove burrs themselves and swallow them, this can lead to serious digestive problems.

Dangers from swallowed burrs and chestnuts

If dogs swallow burrs, they can lead to foreign bodies in the digestive tract and, in the worst case, cause an intestinal blockage. Chestnuts ingested while playing can also be dangerous. They do not dissolve and often have to be surgically removed if they lead to an intestinal blockage.

Berries and fruit: prevent stomach problems

Eating berries and fruits such as rosehips or elderberries can also cause stomach problems in dogs. Make sure that your dog does not eat any poisonous or indigestible fruit. Products such as Acid Protect® from NutriLabs can help with stomach problems and support the dog’s stomach lining.

Coat care in autumn

In addition to avoiding hazards such as burrs and chestnuts, coat care is particularly important in autumn. Irostol® Dog from NutriLabs offers ideal support for a shiny and healthy coat. It provides essential fatty acids, vitamins and minerals that not only strengthen the coat but also the liver metabolism.
