eye prolbem

hello i help this guy conditioning and breeding we had a small litter 2 weeks ago the eyes started opening 1 of the pups has a eye thet won't open i tryed to spread it a little but could not see anything seems like the eye lid are together and i'm thinking there is no eye in the socket at all i say this cus the outside of it seems kind of flat unlike the other eye a small buldge with a eye peeking out ,,, the pup is adorable even beeing popeyed i see it as a sighn that i schould keep him instead of the other one to be babied like his grandfather was for many years ,,, has alyone had this prolbem before it is a brood breeding not bro sis but definitally brood

 

leave their eyes alone

they will open on their own

 

thanks frank

 

frank or whoever not the first time with pups over here so this is a iregular condition there is 3 pups 2 of the pups no prolbem with the eyes and their both open on both dogs 1 of thoes does have a hurnia ,, the 3rd pup the eye is the prolbem i been cleaning it off with warm watter and a rag the mother did take a nip at that pup over a week ago but did not harm the eye at all a scratch in the nose aera but is healing just fine there was a tiny bit of krud in the tearduct yesterday was the first time seeing that and it does look flat ,,this pup is importent 2 males in the litter this one with the eye prolbem but the other has a bit of a hurnia i wanted the hurnia one at first but i would pick the popeyed dog before a hurniaed dog i have to wait till friday to get him to the vet

 

i dont know why u would want to keep a visually impaired dog over one with just a simple hernia. hernias can go away on thier own as the pup grows, and if not, they're easy and cheap to fix and don't affect performance. sounds like your other pup has a deformed eye or no eye since it appears flat. often times this causes problems with the eyelid as well. the lid will fold in and lashes will rub the deformed eye or socket causing pain and a lifetime of infections. see what ur vet tells u on friday. good luck

 

if its not your first time with pups why you ask then

a pups worst enemy is a over active human mom

and if the lil mofo was born with one eye i would cull that one for shure
he is defective from birth and i personaly dont like pups that have hurnias another cull

those pups are not very healthy from the sound of it

take it for what its worth but the only med attention bulldog pups should have is worming out and vaccinations

 

but i like the old school meathods where only the strong and healthy survived

 

when we had one that was slower to open, but otherwise looked healthy, my mom would get a real warm damp washcloth and hold it on the eye all morning for a couple days....im not so sure if it is considered "old school", or even actually benefitted the pup, but within a day or so the eye would open and all would be good. something she learned from my great grandma with the farm dogs

 

Cull it................

 

lee not knocking your mom man but she did more than most i knew


true enough some pups eyes open a lil slower than some

a day or so difference

but iv never had to help them
it always happens by themselves

lil mofos one open one closed untill it happens

 

but any pup with health
or physical defects not caused by its mother or enviormental cicumstance shall be culled


just my thoughts onit

 

I had a pup that when he opened his eyes he had cornial edima. Put meds in his eyes for weeks every 4 hours. Didn't help any. But he doesn't know he's blind lol. Lil bastard can get around real good. I keep him in the house now. He literally killed a littermate. Makes you wonder sometimes if he can see or not lol.

 

the eye did open today enough for me to see that there is a eyeball still a little flat on that side ,,i could never cull pups but if i were it would be the hurnia one not the popeyed dog for some reason not a sick reason i kind of wanted it to stay that way i guess we can call him popeye instead of beeing named after his great grand ,, like i said we made the if he were visually handicaped he's my responsibilty and if i had to make my house dog a yard dog i would to care for popeye ,,all 3 will be little bastards no dought ,,, don't know how true it is but i heard a few times i think not to long ago on here that the best game dogs it is very common for them to be agressive with their young ,, and i did the warm rag thing every day this eye just took 5 days longer then all the others ,,, thanks everyone

 

Well it is good for the dog and you can take it as a nice practice and needs to be taken care for the eye.
