Dog with Eye draining

  • lacey the lab said on 03 Aug 2007 at 12:55 am

    Hi Dr.C.

    I have a 10month old black lab pup and about 5 days ago her left eye began seeping a yellowish/greenish ooze. I wipe it away and it comes back a few minutes later. should I take her ot the vet or what? It does not seem to be bothering her.

    Thanks, lacey the lab’s owner!

  • Lacey,

    I would have her eye checked out by your veterinarian. If there is a yellowish/greenish ooze there is something infected. A scratch on her eye is the most likely cause. These can be painful and can cause other problems if left untreated. Your veterinarian can put her on an ointment to clear up the infection and make the eye feel better.

    Hello,

    The ear is difficult because it does bleed so easily. The best thing to do is to get an e-collar(satellite dish:)) so that he can not reach his ear when he scratches. If he can’t reach it then it may not bleed.
