In either case, I've tried antibiotics but I think it is allergies or dust. One dog looks like it is tear duct stuff but no inflammation, and another has these white little accumulations at the bottom of the eye. The dogs aren't scratching at their eyes, and it may be more of a hyper-vigilant owner than issue but thoughts? Any rinse or other suggestions? Mike A. "I wouldn't touch that dog, son.

All you do is steep a camomile (make sure it's pure camomile) tea bag in distilled water as if you're making yourself a cup of tea to relax. Let it cool and use an eye dropper to put a bit in each eye, Keep the extra refrigerated and use until gone or for no more than 4 days max. One advantage is you can't use too much and it is very soothing for the eye. The only possible down side would be if the dog happened to be allergic to camomile or something closely related.

You can put it either directly into the eye or around the outside. The vet recommended it to me. when you say little white accumulations..do you mean the gunk that gets into the corner of their eye or do you mean little white cysts along the eyelid rim? Don't complain....TRAIN!!!

A baby wipe is also a good thing for wiping eye gunk. Terramycin ophthalmic ointment can be bought without prescription.
