| Springtime allergies and conjunctivitis? I know various allergies generally show up as skin conditions, but last April both Cooper & Daphne got slightly teary eyes. It lasted about a month, then cleared up. Since that's the time I take everyone in for vet checks & HW testing, I asked my vet about it and he said many of his clients mentioned this in the springtime.
Now, April is almost over, and all three Rotties (Phoebe is ancient & doesn't spend much time outside) had somewhat teary eyes for the last few weeks. We were on vacation and had to board Dutch - his eyes are totally fine now; he was inside most of last week. The other two spent most days outside, and their eyes are just starting to get a bit better. No redness, no cloudiness, only a little clear discharge.
Is anyone else seeing this? I have not treated the dogs at all, my vet didn't feel it necessary, & they don't seem bothered by it. But is anyone has some OTC/home remedy they can share, I'd appreciate that too.
Thanks!
