4 TIPS FOR AVOIDING DOG EYE INJURIES
Pets can't talk and don't complain. Dogs may wiggle or even try to bite when they are scared or in pain. What else can they do?
But do we really know how much pain their are in?
I recently had an eye injury that scratched my cornea and taught me a very valuable lesson.
I had NO idea an eye injury could be sooo painful. I've seen hundreds, maybe thousands of dogs and cats with a variety of eye injuries - including bite wounds to the eye, scratches, foreign bodies such as metal in the eye, ulceration to the cornea from chemicals as well as eye infections.
As a veterinarian, I try to be patient and empathetic with dogs and cats. But let me tell you - I have totally different empathy now. Pets can't talk and don't complain. But now after actually experiencing how painful an eye injury is... I will be even MORE empathetic with pets with eye injuries (or any other problem).
Of course you know that I am big believer in prevention, so I want to share a few tips on how to avoid eye injuries in your dog:
1. Don't spray any chemicals around your pet that could get into his eyes. If you are outside and spraying any chemicals, make sure your dog is in the house or out of the area.
2. Don't let your dog stick his head out the window.
3. Keep your dog on a leash where you can control his actions (which can include running through brush that may poke him in the eye or getting into a fight with another dog).
4. When shampooing your dog - make sure you don't get any shampoo in his eyes. Clean his face and around his eye with a wet cloth with no shampoo on it.
Following these tips will help protect your dog from eye injuries..
