But, while you are there,have him tested
for Dry
Eye. (my yorkie had dry
eye..my vet said it is quite common in older
dogs and smaller breeds seem more suseptible to it )
Mucus buildup / discharge from the eyes is the main symptom...also squinting of the eyes, (especially outside from sun and wind )
The test is very simple, painless,inexpensive...(paper strip), and takes about 60 seconds. Dry Eye can be very painful and can lead to eye ulcers and blindness.
