Question
My 11yr.old Cockers right eye all of a sudden started looking lazy and weird, she seems to see and act alright, what could it be?

Answer
Janice -

An 11 year old cocker is at least seventy years old when compared to human years.  She is a geriatric patient and should be considered so.  There are several reasons why she may be looking lazy - she may have arthritis and be in pain, or there may be problems with the kidneys, or there may be heart problems.  Have her examined at a doctor's office to determine why she appears to be so lethargic.
