ITCHY EYES

Question
Hi Maria, I just talked to you a couple days ago about BIGGIE. Well I just noticed that he has been itching at his eyes a lot lately. To the point where the inside of his roll is raw. I clean them daily so they are not dirty. I was a little late on giving him his flea medicine though. Do you think that is the reason?

Answer
How about you give him 2 NuVET wafers per day for 10 days.... Also, give him one Benadryl 25mg every 10 hrs for a few days...
Talk to your vet if he gets any secretions - more than the regular secretions...
It may just be an irritation of dust or ?
Also, sometimes they tend to get little eye infections and the vet will need to give you an antibiotic.
If the NuVET and a Benadryl help, then it was just a little irritation or allergy.

Keep me posted!
