| Sammi's eye...Possible allergy?? I was wondering if anyone had any experience with Dog allergies of the eye?? Sammi's eye (s) started to look a lil red and swollen around them...I am bringing her to the vet this week but wanted to see if I could do anything to soothe it? She*doesn't itch them or anything to me they look irritating... Here are 2 pics Any advice/help would be appreciated Many thanks in advance Fran

| Otis had an eye infection, but it didn't look pink on the skin like that. He just had an extra amount of eye gunk, and the vet gave him something like medicated vaseline to put into his eyes. |

| Yeah, Sammi has got no gunk coming out of her eye...I will have the vet run tests to see if maybe she is allergic to something outside or maybe something she has eaten Thanks!! Fran

| I actually just had to take Jackson to the vet last week for the same thing. He started scratching and his eyes were really gunky. The vet gave him a shot and his eyes cleared up. He also told me to give him children's benadryl, it has been better, but still scratching some. |

| Sounds like she might have an outside allergy then if it swells when so goes out back. How about benadryl until Sunday.

| Just got back from the vet... Sammi had conjunctivitis...He gave me some eye medication and in 2 days I have to call him with the progress... I am also bringing her this week for her allergy test I think it is good for me to have a list of things she might be allergic to in case of anything Thanks you all for the suggestions! Fran

| Hope he feels better soon. Harley had extra runny eyes after i brought him home and would sometimes gag or throw up outside. It's very humid here and the vet said it was a little allergy with the weather changing so much. I have some steroid eye drop i use just when he need it. harley's mom |
