Jesse's sore eyeMy wild child has a sore eye. I have started him on RX antibiotic medication. If no better, Monday he goes to the Vet. He is so active he may have something foreign in it or scratched it. Or allergies to the dust from the remodeling in my home. He is turning me gray---LOL!

Thank God for Clairol Joane! Josh is always getting himself in trouble with his eyes. Please tell me how does someone get a piece of food on their eye?
|
JoaneWing
|
I know---LOL! And yes--thank goodness for Miss Clairol. She lives here too.

Hope his eye gets better quicky and is not something more needing a vet. I know how stressful eye problems can be.

Thank you so much Dianne. I knew you would understand my concern.

You have my best wishes too, Jaone: I know how nervewracking it is to have a sick furchild. (I think administering medicine is one of the worst!) Let's hope Jesse will improve through the weekend.

Joane, sorry to hear Jesse has a sore eye. Sending lots of healing magic your way. Give the gorgeous boy a cuddle from me.
I know just how worrying eye problems are.
|
JoaneWing

Yes Sheryl, you have been through so much with eye troubles too. Thank you and thank you too Frances for your good wishes.
Jesse looks much better today. If he continues to improve like this I will not take him to the Vet. I am a germaphobe because of some bad experiences of picking up things at former Vets' offices. One was deadly and killed my puppy.

This is good news Joane! I don't blame you. I actually locate the spray disinfectant and wipe down the table myself. If they only knew.
Steve actually got upset with me once for doing this. He no longer comes with me on doctor's visits. Am I thick headed, or what?

Sheryl

That is good news Joane.
I also worry when my babies visit the vet. You never know what they may come home with.
Joane, what a dreadful experience, to loose your puppy at the vets.

Celeste you are just being smart and cautious. Good for you!
Thank you again Sheryl. Yes I was a teenager and my parents bought me a beautiful collie puppy for Christmas. Her name was Misty. She was healthy until she went for her routine shots. Caught parvo and died. This was when whole kennels were being wiped out. There was no vaccination at the time. My Vet had several dogs die because it was so highly contagious.
This is where my fear of germs stem from for my animals. I am very protective.

Joane, how is Jesse's eye today?
|

Thank you for asking Sheryl. It looks much better! I am having a lot of remodeling done to my house and maybe the dust has irritated his eyes. Of course that flat little face is always a problem too. He slept on my pillow all night holding my hand. He is so sweet!

I am so glad it looks better Since Sparky started having eye issues her eyes get irritated so easy, even if the there is a breeze coming through an open window it makes her paw at her eye, I can see where dust would irritate his eyes.

Pleased to hear sweet Jesse is doing well with his eye issue.
I use a Lubricant twice a day in Hamish's remaining eye.
|
JoaneWing
|
Thank you Sheryl. And thank you for telling me twice a day use is OK. I have just started doing this twice daily on Jesse.

Joane, my vet advised me to use it for Hamish twice a day. He will require this twice a day for life. We are taking no chances with his remaining eye.
Using it twice a day for Jesse, will certainly help soothe any irritation.

JoaneWing
|
Thank you Sheryl--twice a day it is!

I hope he continues to do well. Sparky has to have the tears ointment at least twice a day, it depends on how her eyes look. I also put the tears drops in at lunchtime. Sometimes she needs heavy duty stuff, viral and antibiotics. It definitely keeps me close to home. Glad he is doing well

Just wanted to say Jesse's eye looks well. I did the second round of meds prescribed by my Vet and started the lysine. Thanks again for all of the wonderful advice.
You girls are the BEST!!!!

Yippee! Now all Jesse needs to do is stay out of trouble.
