PS - I do notice he has heavy tearing/weeping in his eyes. I would recommend a wash with Chamomile tea and a switch in diet. When you take him to the vet, mention it, he may have Conjunctivitis or Kennel cough.

Chamomile tea works very well as an eye wash, no chemicals, organic, and works well in babies, adults and animals with no bad side effects.

Thank you! I didn't know what to use to clean it! I have been wiping it with a damp cloth, I just didn't know what to use.

He doesn't really have any symptoms of kennel cough, but as for Conjunctivitis, is there any way to know if it is other than the vet? He has an appointment for vaccines, but not til the 20th, so I'm not sure if I should make an appointment before that?

Well, the weeping is cause for treatment, it seems pretty annoying for him to have . Not a huge ordeal, he could be allergy prone as well, hence my mentioning a switch in diet and an organic eye wash. My sister in law did the tea wash after 6 months of her newborn having the SAME problem in one eye, and it worked miracles. After 2 washes, he was totally normal, no weeping at all. I know it works for humans as well as pets, and the added benefit, no chemicals! What are you feeding your little cutie? If the wash doesn't work, diet may be key.

ginger gets these relly big globs of mucous coming out of her eyes. the vet says its because the sinus are connected to the eye? She doesnt get stains - I wash her eyes daily and use natural eye drops for dry eye or allergy. Vet gave me name. It helps some but I am going to try the cham tea.

 

[Gigit]

Sinus might mean allergies? Makes sense to me... runny nose and eyes are usually allergy related in us people anyhow. I know some poodles are prone to it, I think they as a breed are sensitive to allergies and what they eat.

 

[Blue Fox]

What a cutie! Love those eyes, he looks like a real character.

 

[Pamela]

Gee maybe with a change in her food Ginger's eyes will be better. Since we were feeding Iams and pedigree she might be allergic to corn etc. I hope it clears up!

Cute! I want the Af! (I am a big sighthound freak!)
