It looks almost like a blood spot. Has anyone ever had this with their yorkie? It's worrying me
no but are you seeing an opthamologist as i would recommend going to one if chronic conjunctivitis as this may be dry eye did they do the schirmer test to rule out dry eye? anything that is chronic i would see a specialist to rule out any other possibilities as vets do not specialize in one thing - we saw an opthamologist when dex was having constant we call it boogey eyes as i wanted to be sure not dry eye so she spent an hour with us and was very thorough and non-invasive but it was the best $160 i ever spent as i walked out knowing he was ok and no dry eye just allergies and she told me what was best and not to over use saline solution as it messes with the natural tear production. She was very informative and i know i would not have gotten that from a vet
