Hello!
Another crazy morning but we did manage to bring the last six pups for their eye exams. Thankfully, the canine opthalmologist found no ocular disease in any of the (12) pups. He felt none of the pups are in jeopardy of going blind through disease.
This is the prime time to check for eye disease as the eyes are still growing and the area is very accessible.
I will say that those pups that have eye staining may be due to 'extra eyelashes' (Distichiasis). Removal of those lashes is an option when they are over a year old. Harriet has this condition with no tear staining and I have never had to remove anything. Annabelle doesn't have Distichiasis and yet she eye stains once in a while. Go figure!
