A day before husby left for a business trip a couple of weeks ago, I noticed Louie's usually wide-eyed look turn into a squinty with eyelids almost slit-like look...Oh $!!$!, conjunctivitis! True enough when I opened one eye, the usually white conjunctiva is red, with no obvious discharge though. Maybe viral. The following morning, there was already a yellowish discharge. So off we went to the vet after dropping husby off at the airport. Flourescein dye was applied to check for abrasions, thank God, Louie had none. It was allergic conjunctivitis. Vet couldn't specify what allergen. We were given a triple antibiotic with steroid ointment for a week. Fast forward to a week after the treatment, Louie's eyes are already back to normal. He also had his Lyme & distemper shots. Unexpected trip to the vet= $167.00 Seeing your pup with no medical issues=PRICELESS!
