Although natural care products / removed URL / for dogs are generally safe, there are still potential risks and side effects to consider. Some dogs may be allergic or sensitive to certain natural ingredients, causing skin irritation or other adverse reactions. Additionally, natural products are not regulated the same way as prescription drugs, so it's important to research the product and manufacturer carefully to ensure their safety and effectiveness. Always follow the product instructions carefully, and start with a small amount to monitor potential reactions. Finally, consult with your veterinarian before introducing any new products, especially if your dog has a preexisting health condition or is taking other medications. Taking these precautions can help ensure the safety and effectiveness of natural care products for your furry friend.

Around here a basic exam is $35-55 for a vet opthamologist.

And here too, still in No Cal but our prices are sometimes higher then what lvoss gets… and it is well worth the cost... to have a specialist look... while your regular Vet is great... an eye specialist sees and understands possible problem with the eyes...

Definately get a second opionion. At will give you peace of mind. You dont hant to have any doubts.
Hugs & kisses for Miles!
He's always been one of my favorites on this site!

Awww, that was really sweet Barkless
I canceled his appointment for surgery today. I just don't see that he's troubled at all by his eye anymore. He's having no problems that we can tell. I'm going to consider getting a second opinion, but it'll take some investigation to find a good ophthalmologist. Thanks for everyone's support!! -
Here is the ACVO search page to find a vet opthamologist.

IMO, I would find one sooner then later… eyes are nothing to mess around with....That said, Mickii had a skin tag on her upper eye lid that I did have my regular Vet remove, but her eye specialist said it was something that is fairly routine to do (remove the skin tag on the eye lids), but to go unresolved can cause problems with the eye later...

Well, after much debate, and a string of rescheduled (by the vet) appointments, Miles did have his surgery. The tags seemed to be getting bigger and he was holding his eye shut almost constantly (except for when treats were present…lol)
He's 2 days post op now. He's doing better. Still holding his eye shut... but I would too if I had a stitch that close to my eye!!
The sleeping Ham
Miles also had a mole removed from his neck. It was growing too and we didn't like it's location being so close to where his collar sits.
Today we have our first visit after the surgery. Wish us luck!
-
Best of luck to all of you!!!! Miles is a lucky little guy to have such caring parents.
-
I am glad he has such wonderful caring owners.
Hugs to you and you boy. -
He's doing a LOT better tonight… he's actually got his eye open!! Hurray!! The post op visit went well... although he did growl at the vet and show him his hackels...but we have to keep his e-collar on for 2 more weeks!
-
Glad to hear Miles is doing better! We'll keep paws and fingers crossed that he keeps it up.
-
Glad to hear Miles is recovering nicely!

Poor Ham…but glad to hear he is on the mend!
