Again, was a skin scraping done...??? That's the very first thing that should've been done.

If on Apoquel, then he has allergies...? If he has allergies, then infections can be a life-long issue (ear, skin, eyes) - so you have to stay on top of all of those.

If the eye gunk is yellow/green - then a vet needs to see this ASAP.

If the Apoquel is not working then, once again, talk to the vet - bc you can probably increase the dose and/or give it 2x a day.

Allergies are just *miserable* for dogs - so please treat this for your poor kiddo.
