I think Brit'ny has cherry eye in her right eye! It looks like a little sliver of dark red meat right in the corner.... Im taking her to the vet first thing tomorrow morning.

My shih tzu -poo had cherry eye and he was about her age when he got it because I remember doing the cherry eye surgery and getting him neutered at the same time!

I don't, however, remember what it looked like when it first came. Im hoping maybe its not cherry eye and the cat scratched her (not that I want the cat to scratch her) or something. PLEASE DONT BE CHERRY EYE PLEASE!!!

Anybody know what to look for?

I have NEVER heard of cherry eye! what is that?
Brinkley has a darker piece/sliver of what I thought was hair that comes out of both inside corners of his eyes. Sometimes when he is really still I can trim it a little with the scissors, but it is always there. This is more brownish in color than red though.

Goodness, I hope all is ok.
Let us know!

I had no idea what cherry eye was; so I looked it up. Below is a link with GRAPHIC pictures so if you have a weak stomach you may not want to look

Hope this helps.

Ok, Brinkley's sliver is not like that description Nichole gave.
Is Brit's like that?
Hopefully not.

Sending sweet Brinkley kisses to Brit!

Is the sliver of hair stuff that I am talking about in your babies' eyes too?

UPDATE!

Okay I just got home and her eye looks WAY better. My boyfriend thinks that maybe she had an allergic reaction to something outside. Im still taking her to the vet tomorrow!

Thanks for the kisses and support!
