Hi Guys,

I haven't posted in so long, but when I thought my Bella could be sick, I thought of you guys to get a general opinion.

So, like many Yorkies, mine (who is about 1.5-years-old) gets that black, gooey-yucky stuff in the corner of her eyes. The other day, my husband thought it looked irritated in the corner of one of her eyes (not actually her eyeball, but more on the skin). I looked at it, and while it was red, I didn't think it looked that bad.

Well, tonight we got home from the grocery store and noticed that it looked a bit more red and was kinda bleeding (looked more raw than anything else).

I'm going to try to bring her to the doctor tomorrow to get it looked at, b/c I don't want it to get infected...or more infected if it already is.

Has this happened to any of your guys' pups before?

I appreciate any advice or thoughts!

Thanks!!
