My 1 year old chocolate lab had green gunk oozing out of her eyes about a month ago, and now....?

Question

thats gone. but shes losing hair just around her eyes? whats going on? could this cause her to be blind? i AM taking her to the vet soon.... what is it?

Answer 1

Sounds like an allergy, she probably has been scratching which is causing hair loss.

Answer 2

It could be a allergy,Good Idea about taking him to the vet.

Answer 3

Your dog probably has a complex medical term that I can't remeber that is commonly referred to as dry eye. My dogs got it and they had green, gunky goober in their eyes. The hair loss is probably from her rubbing at her eyes, since the condition can make them itch. You need to buy drops that cure dry eye in people and put them in twice a day and she should be fine in a week or two.

Although, just to be on the safe side, I WOULD recommend taking her to the vet, just in case it is soomething else.

Best Wishes

Answer 4

Greeg gunk sounds like an infection(clear or yellow i would agree to allergies) and she could be itching her eyes and rubbing the hair away... couldnt tell you what is causing it but good idea to go to the vet

Answer 5

I wouldn't delay about getting her to the vet. Green gunk doesn't sound good,  Losing hair sounds like mange, u could have a very sick dog. Good luck

Answer 6

It could be an allergy or a few other things.  Green ooze could have been conjunctivitis, hair loss could be mange.  Too many different possibilities to diagnose without a vet.  You never want to wait with an eye problem because if it is serious you don't get a second chance on them.
