The Whites Of My Dog’s Eyes Are Swollen: Extraocular Myositis In Dogs

by Lindsay Stordahl of ThatMutt.com I want to share my dog’s experience with extraocular myositis (also called polymyositis) in the hope that it might help someone else get proper treatment for his or her dog. According to the canine eye specialist who eventually diagnosed my dog, extraocular myositis is caused by an allergic reaction that makes the muscles in the back of the dog’s eyes begin to swell. The first symptoms When my Lab mix Ace was around 18 months old, he looked a little different one morning. I couldn’t quite figure out why, and I said to my husband, “I think Ace’s eyes are swollen.” The change was so subtle that I thought I was imagining it. Or maybe my dog’s eyes had always been that way, and I just hadn’t noticed. It’s hard to explain, but the white parts of his eyes were ever so slightly “puffy.” Ace was acting normal, though, so I still thought I might be imagining things. This was on a Friday. The next day, I knew my dog’s eyes were definitely swoll

Surviving The Post-Op: After Your Dog's ACL/CCL Surgery

You're probably all worried, I was too. Let me start with the good news. Based on my experience with Jasmine's bi-lateral ACL surgeries I truly believe that the post-op recovery is actually going to be much easier for your dog than it will be for you. Dogs are survivors. They don't sulk or complain, they take what there is and make the best of it. They have an amazing ability to adapt and make things work. This is probably one of the times when the difference between a dog and a human attitude is the most profound. The other good news is that from the moment of the surgery your dog is on his way to get well. That's what I kept telling Jasmine--and more importantly myself--when I was counting the days. You are one day closer to getting your life back. And then two … Prepare your home It will make it easier for both you and your dog if you plan ahead and get some things ready before the surgery. Of course, if you have a little dog some of the points below w

Symptoms To Watch For In Your Dog: Excessive Drooling

Dogs drool; there is no way around it. Some will drool more, some less, depending on the breed and other factors. (From our observation also on the gender—girl dogs don't drool! LOL. All boy dogs we have had drooled a lot. JD's waterworks could turn a desert into a lush garden!) Saliva is a good thing. Not necessarily all over your Sunday outfit, but it certainly has an important function in your dog's mouth. It is an enzyme-rich liquid that lubricates food and starts the digestive process. (That's why most of the waterworks, as in JD's case, get turned on in anticipation of a meal.) Saliva also contains some other cool stuff, such as antibacterial agents. Excessive doesn't mean more than you'd like , but more than would be normal for your dog. This is always the key. A symptom is something that is abnormal for the individual/breed in question . Excessive drooling also goes by the name “ptyalism.” If your dog starts drooling more than usual, do
