Notes:

This weed has small flower buds that turn into tiny sticky seeds. It’s out of control and I’d like to know what it is. It produces dozens of seeds and spreads very easily. My dog comes in with seeds stuck all over him.

    Maybe houndtoungue/gypsy flower (Cynoglossum officinale)? Check it out and see if you have a match. Click on images to enlarge from the included link below. Best wishes! https://www.invasiveplantatlas.org/subject.html?sub=5502
