Eye injury

Posted by admin on February 5, 2014 Comments Off on Eye injury

They had a bad fight again for nothing.

Aramis ended up with a bad deep scratch on his left eye.

We went to the vet and he prescribed  an eye drop to make his pupil back to normal as it was stuck  and not dilating anymore; and an ointment.I put 1 drop per day for 2 days and it  dilated. I put ointment every 6 hours .

We went to recheck at the vet twice. His eye is almost back to normal in the sense that he still has some white part on his eye. The vet told me that it will take some time to cure by itself as blood vessels slowly came back.

I bought a very soft head cone for any injury. This one is much better that the plastic ones that the vet sells. This is the comfy cone by all four paws.

They had a fight and D’Artagnan lost a nail. The nail literally pooped out. It didn’t really bleed. I cleaned and disinfected the quick. He is wearing a boot when we go out to prevent infection. It will take several weeks for the nail to grow back.

This is the nail that was on the floor. This is the first nail after the thumb one.

I bought medium size from Pawz. He walks very well with it. It took him couple days to get use to it.
I had previously buy the xsmall recommended on the back of the package for pekingese but it is way too small.
The medium is good as he has a lot of coat on his paws.
