Please help. I have no idea what to do. I have two 7 month old yorkies, Colby and Bailey. Well all of a sudden, Colby's right eye won't open. I tried rinsing it with warm water, but still nothing. I did get a good look in it and it is beat red. My vet does not have an emergency telephone number and I will have to wait until morning to see him. Any idea what could me wrong or what I can do? The man at the pet store told us to put visine in it and to give him a puppy antihistamine. However, in reading the directions for the pill, it states that I should not give it to a dog under 20 pounds unless directed by a doctor. Please help. Thanks.
