Sending prayers for your boy.

I agree...I would try to get an opthamologist to see him.

Prayers for Peanut.

This is terrible. my prayers are with you and Peanut. I would get a second opinion. Hope you called animal control forthe dog that attacked him and the owner. Please keep us updated on his health.

We just got back from the vet he said the eye didn't look that bad. So he didn't take it out. The vet said peanut will be blind in the eye and he may have to have it removed later, but not today. I have to take him back in a week to get the stitches out and we should know if he gets to keep the eye. Still praying for a miracle. Thank you for the thoughts and prayers. Please keep praying for Peanut!

My Trixie was attacked by another dog and her eye swelled up.This was about 10 years ago.She had her eye removed.It didn't affect her in any way.She was 15 at the time and lived to be nearly 20.
Please don't worry,it is only cosmetic.They cope marvelous.The vet pointed out to me that his dog had an eye removed and I had never noticed.
If it comes to the worst Peanut will soon bounce back.
Hoping things keep improving for you.I know how you feel.

Maximo · 06-03-2011, 07:49 AM

We appreciate the update. I will continue to pray for Peanut.

Cha Cha · 06-03-2011, 08:22 AM

I am so sorry you are going through this with your little Peanut. I am also glad to hear your vets are giving him more time to be absolutely sure. I too am praying for a miracle for little peanut, and hoping his little body repairs itself.

Is there an canine opthamologist in your area?

Sammy Mommy · 06-03-2011, 08:56 AM

I'm so sorry that you and Peanut are going thru such a terrible time. Sending good thoughts and prayers for you and Peanut.

Patti · 06-03-2011, 09:59 AM

Poor baby. I hope his eye heals quickly and he does not have to have it removed.

Mom to Hot Rod · 06-03-2011, 10:38 AM

Good news.

Hope he starts to feel better soon and things work out for you guys.

kjc · 06-03-2011, 11:32 AM

Great news! So happy to hear it wasn't as bad as expected! I think I would ask about seeing an opthalmologist, maybe they could do more to try to save his eye and his vision.... (nothing against your vet)...
