Could anyone give me some advice on what to treat my terriers eyes with. His eyes are matting up with what i can only discribe as a greenish goo but his eyes do not look sore. If this does not clear up very soon i will take him to the vet but i thought it would be worth asking for a bit of help first. Thanks in advance

Is it an earth dog or a cover worker? Earth dogs can get sand, dirt, earth etc wedged under their eyelids so far back that you can only see it if you pull the eyelids up and down, depending on whether it is the upper or lower eyelid. Make sure to flush under the eyelids when the dog has been to ground even if you can't see any dirt to begin with: use a plastic syringe, without a needleand GENTLY flush the eye, dropping warm, not hot, water into the corner of the eye nearest the ear, letting it run out of the lower corner. Do both eyes every time just in case.

Then use eye ointment as the others have said.
