RE: Eye Discharge
Hi Joby, Right now Bella is changing her teeth and it is not unusual to have a bit of redness or even droopiness in the eye during this time. However if the discharge is yellow or green in colour then she needs some eye ointment from the vet. All eye discharge should be from the inner corner, any watery discharge from the outside corner could be an indication of entropia developing. Buy some 100% cotton pads that are normally used to remove eye makeup and with some warm water gently clean the eyes using a different pad for each one. Check inside her ears as well, if she is beginning to exibit food allergy the inner ears are usually affected as well and also if she is chewing her feet excessively and they are pink and raw between the toes. Personally I would not feed rawhides but find her a nice meaty bone without too much fat or marrow and let her chew that to ease her mouth discomfort while teething. Rose
Re: Eye Discharge
> Recently my 4 month old BMD (Bella) has been having an inordinate amount of eye discharge. Any sort of eye discharge in any of my animals I always keep a tube of Brolene. Used to be Golden Eye ointment here UK, no doubt in the US you have a similar cream over the counter, chemist/pharmicist, for simple eye infections. If no better after a couple of days, consult the vet! Love Jean, Sunny, Simmy, Barney and the Gang XXX http://www.angelfire.com/anime3/longlease/index.htm
