Eye Injuries in Dogs Like the Malamute

 


If you own a dog like the Malamute or another breed of canine then you may already be familiar with how sometimes scary and stressful eye injuries can be. The first thing to do if your Malamute injures his eye is to call your vet immediately. An injury can sometimes be the result of an eye irritation due to an eyelash or other type of debris in the eye. Irritation and inflammation can also be caused by a scratch whether big or small. Signs that your dog may have scratched his eye include watery eyes, green or yellow eye discharge, squinting, excessive blinking, and an avoidance of bright lights. Your vet will need to examine your dog’s eye to determine the source of the problem. He may “stain” the eye to identify the scratch more clearly. Consult with your vets Tampa, FL for treatment options.
