Answer 1

your dog could of been bit by a bee or something like that thats what happend to my german sheaperd i just gave her benergin but my dogs eye is like the just not as bad and the vet said it was nothing i would give your dog benagill

Answer 2

Looks like he's got the beginnings of "cherry eye" that is an inflammation of the third eyelid.  They might be able to give him something to help the inflammation but if it progresses to where it's a ball of skin in the eye which looks like a cherry then only surgery can correct the problem.

Good luck

Answer 3

Well my best guess is that it is probably infected. My golden retriever sometimes rolls around outside and gets something in his eye and looks exactly like that. What we do is give him a low dose aspirin (for humans) and it works. So i hope your dog gets better!! So if you want you can try the asprin till tomorrow when you get your dog to the vet. In the meen-time just keep and eye on your dog when you let it outside. TAKE CARE!! 8)-[--<

Answer 4

I believe they call that cherry eye? You should take him to the vet and they will give you a prescription for a jelly-like substance that you squirt in his eye. It makes that red part go away.

Please don't wait too long though because if you do he will have to get surgery on his little eye and that's no fun.

Answer 5

your dog has a sty. you will need to get some medi's from the vet..my english bulldog got one and it took about a week to go away..sorry...it takes time to heal..Good luck..

Answer 6
