I'm an EMT and know that lemon burns, know it won't cause your eye to fall out, know eyes don't grow back, and/or won't kill your dog. I also know how to hold my dog still enough to put saline solution in her eye. I've done it many times.

I've seen a lot of your posts here on YT and you seem to think you know it all. NO I'm NOT calling you a know-it-all. I'm just saying, you seem to think you know most everything. Just take a step back and know that not everyone does what you do, and don't make them feel bad for doing it a different. That's all. You may not use cologne, hairspray on yourself, non-tearless shampoo, etc. but others do. I use d@mn expensive salon human shampoo and conditioner called Kenra on Baby and her coat is silky, skin is fine and she smells beautimous!

I know I don't know it all but I have had lemon squirted in my eye before and it hurts and I would never want that to happen to my dog just because I was trying to squirt it in her mouth because she was doing what dogs do. I will admit if it was a tiny bottle and you were actually walking over to the dog opening there mouth and squirting it into mouth is different then sitting on the couch and squirting them hoping to hit there mouth. What I imagined was the second one not the first and I still don't know which one she was referring to but if it's the second one that can be painful to the dog if gotten in there eye. I imagine you are careful when bathing her and don't say to yourself I don't have to be careful because it's just shampoo and won't kill her. Anything you know can cause pain you should try to avoid because no one really knows how much pain it causes them because they can't tell us. I don't even let Callie put her head out the car window unless she has her goggle things on because I have a friend who is going blind and it's scary for him so I could not imagine something happening to a dog and making them go blind and not understand it. I try to prevent Callie from having any pain I can and squirting lemon water at her isn't the best way to do that.
