Gooey eye

[Guest little_lloyd]

I took my Terrier for a mooch upstream yesterday at about 3 pm then went out to the pup for a meal got back put the dog and pup out the terrier was fine then but by the time i had been back from my trap rounds i went to put them both out agian and the terrier has a manky eye all gundged up like conjuntivitios she acting fine just gives the eye a rub now and agian so its irritating her a bit.

 

Ive bathed it and if it does not improve later ill ring the vet. Does anyone have any idea of whats happened?

Give the eye a good flush out, a cool tea bag is as good as anything. You have to be careful incase there is a scratch/jag to the cornea, this can cause a gunky eye..Fucithalmic if you can get it from the Vet will clear this up in no time.

I've no idea why tea works so well, but it does! I usually pop the tea bag in boiling water, let it soak a while then either use the tea bag carefully to douse the eye, or soak some cotton wool in the cooled tea.
