Thanks guys... I did some research and now I see that I overlooked several indicators of dry eye!! The discharge, the fact that 2 years ago he had surgery for cherry eye (the third eye lid removed) and he was shaking his head.. I though it was due to the ear infection I was treating. oh my Anyway.. he is doing better. He has not bit me giving meds yet:eek: just kidding I do think he thinks about it though. His eye looks a lot better, the dog bite on his ear still looks sore. I take him back to the vet Thursday. The vet has called twice to check up on him, and he thinks he is doing well. He wants to check the ulcer to be sure it has or is healing. Of course he may be on eye drops for the rest of his life. See, this is a lesson I have learned. I just knew I needed to have him checked, glad I listened to my inter voice. and not dh!! Will keep you posted on Thursday. |
Glad to hear Sammy is better. :) And why would you ever listen to DH?! ;):rolleyes: |
Shinja, Just seeing this, so sorry You and Sammy had to go through this. Sending hugs and saying prayers that he continues to heal. |

lol... I know.. I let him think I listen because he is "the man". The funny part I overheard him tell his sister about Sammy illnesses.. and he made it sound like HE took Sammy to the vet:eek: I think the eye infection scared dh too. He loves his furbuts as much as I do -- |
Bless his heart. I hope he is well on the road to recovery now! And don't blame yourself! we all have dropped leashes. I dropped Gracie's once in PetSmart and didn't even notice. A nice woman walked up to me and asked me if she was mine. She said since I had two other yorkies in tow she thought it problably was. Yikes! |
Sammy's check up Sammy had his check up today. The vet said his eye looks great, he said he may have been irritated from the groomers. He said some products or blowing hair into his eyes could have caused the ulcer, that would be better than having dry eye But.. his ear from the dog bite is not healing very well. In fact, he lost a little wedge of his ear flap. The vet said if it doesn't heal he may have to remove the tip of his ear flap..that would be better than infection and him tearing it by accident. I have to take him back in a week to see how it is healing. |
Very happy to hear that Sammy's eye has healed! I wish his ear would heal too, poor baby, but if not, his mommy and vet are on top of it. :) Glad to hear Sammy is doing so well. |
Poor little Sammy. I would be tempted to get the other ear clipped too so they match if it comes to that. (Not!) He will recover, I am sure because he has yorkietalk prayers on his side and yorkietalk prayers are the best! Keeping both of you in my heart. |
Just seeing this thread today... OMGosh! Sure praying that Sammy heals fast and feels better soon! |
update on Sammy 1 Attachment(s) Thanks guys for all you heartfelt prayers and caring. I know it makes a difference, and we all have so much on our plates it means a lot to me for you all to take the time to care. I think my prayer list has more YT members on it than others!! That is a good thing! Sammy is feeling better, his eye sure looks better. I take him back in a few days.. the vet is hoping it is not dry eye. His ear, I guess a lot worst could happen. I hope it heals and when his hair grows back it will be protected. I posted a picture of my grumpy baby! He is a mommy's boy for sure, never far from me when I am home. |
Awwwww. Sammy is such a cutie! :) Glad is eye is better. Praying ear will heal quickly! |
