What are these seeds or burrs?

Here is the whole plant. Hope someone has an idea what it is.

The burrs or seeds are really easy to comb out with his soft fur. Just had to send what he looks like without the mess.
Thank you so much to canesisters for the instructions. Made posting so much easier.

Love your lab Smart Red. It is so wonderful that we can find such beautiful dogs in rescue. Bax was 4 when we got him and he has been with us just over a year. Gets into everything, and the neighbour's Westie has those terrible round brown burrs in his face which do have to be cut out.

Your doggy is SO CUTE!!!

See, you got it. yea, TEG is more better to me than fb is, though i have a fb for both of my 2 children who happen to be cats.

I'm not sure what that weed is, but let me get a couple of plant identifying folks here to look. Thistlebloom gets herself determined and often winds up getting the id right. Me, I get all technical and often get it all wrong. MontyJ and Ridgerunner are real good at it too.

The University of Wisconsin has a great plant ID program. I typed Weeds of Wisconsin and Google showed the program URL. I could ID your plant if I could see it. Perhaps you might try that site? Most of the weeds are found in more than just WI anyway.

Well, it isn't cleavers. Time to pour through the reference books.

Do you know what the flowers look like?

You might check this one out. If this is it, it's an invasive import.

Enchanter's Nightshade Circaea lutetiana

It looks like that is it. I checked the seeds again and they are very fuzzy. I have not seen the flowers before, just the mess they make on the dogs. We do have the vines of nightshade with the berries all around here. We back onto farm property and it grows everywhere. Should I be worried about this enchanters nightshade being poisonous? It does not appear that the different websites have a consensus.
Thanks so much for everyone's help and now being able to put a name on it.
