dogsgalore Posted February 3, 2004 Share Posted February 3, 2004 I was wondering if anyone could help me. Tonight I noticed Jesse's eye had something wronq with it. It looks like what a chip in a marble looks like, it is in the center of his eye. It doesn't seem to do anything to his sight but I can't be sure. It has been like this off and on ever since I got him, but not quite this bad, usually it just looked like a hair was on his eye but now it actually looks like a chip. It could be that he bumped against something, maybe the cat scratched it but it doesn't look like a scratch. Is there any known problem of this type associated with the Westie breed? Thanks.

MajiesMom Posted February 3, 2004 Share Posted February 3, 2004 That must be painful?! Sorry I don't know what that might be. Sounds like a vet trip though. 2 out of the 3 Westies (that I can think of) that board at my kennel have eye problems. One is 13 and the other is 15 I think? (Senoirs which is a factor). They both have some type of infection in their eye - they have to be cleaned at least twice a day with medication applied. I'm pretty sure the older one is blind. How old is your Westie?

dogsgalore Posted February 4, 2004 Author Share Posted February 4, 2004 Jesse is only one, the first time I seen that he was still a pup. It always seems to happen in the winter after he's come back inside. Maybe it's the cold wind? Anyway, I checked this morning and it's gone again, no trace of it at all. Weird.
