Puppys Eyes

Question
I have a lab/boxer mix puppy.  She is 7 months old!  She has a little bit of goop coming out of her eye, it is a yellowish!  I have been doing a warm wet compress and cleaning her eye up using a warm wet washcloth!  What else can I do to help her!  Our vet is closed today, and I am worried about her!  Also, she had trouble pooping this morning when I took her out!

Answer
Well this is two different things. There is nothing you can do for her eye until the vet sees her except what you are doing.

As far as her bowel movements, what she eats has to do with how she goes. Since I have no idea what that is, I cannot comment. You can add some canned pumpkin to her food if you'd like, that adds fiber and aids in their stool formation.
