Is it possible for dogs to get pink eye?
Last night Ive noticed Benji had a lot of eye gunk, mucus, whatever it is, by his eye. Noticed the same thing this morning, a lot of dry mucus by one of his eyes. His eyes look normal and he doesn't seem to be itching either one of them. Ive never seen this in him yet? does this warrant a vet visit?

In the two months Ive had him, Ive never seen so much eye gunk and it only coming from one eye.

Only one eye? Then, yeah, definitely a vet visit. Good call Smile When Logan's done that, it turned out (TWICE) to be a scratched cornea. They give you some meds and a e-collar and in a day or two they are back to good.

Let us know how he's doing Smile

It was an eye infection, or the start of it.
The vet set it was good we came in when we did cause it would have gotten a lot worse the next day.
She gave us eye drops and all is well now!
