| Eye blinking I noticed Joels left eye was blinking and when I checked it theres was a hair or something so I got it off and cleaned his eye with a wet cloth but he's still blinking it. I hope it's still blinking from what was on it before and not something else. Is there something I can use to clean it or something for it to feel better? |

| You could use some doggie antibacterial opthalmic ointment (non-steroidal) if you have some on hand.... if not get some from your vet for your doggy first aid kit. Maybe some plain (and I mean plain/natural) Natural tears lubricating eye drops for humans... water can burn a little... Natural Tears is soothing to the eye. If at any point you see swelling, pus, or discoloration or anything abnormal ... get him to the vet. Also watch that he's not pawing at his eye... that alone could warrant a vet visit.. to prevent him causing more damage....

| Ok, thanks. He's blinking it a little less but I'll still put something on it and keep an eye on it. |

Great advice. I would add that a very warm compress is good for eye pains. | |
