Eye cleaning for gray poodle

Foreword

Grizzly is a 4-month-old gray poodle. Her eyes are always moist. Her tears are discharged abnormally for a long time. Her tear stain symptoms are very serious. From a medical point of view, the formation of tear stains is simply that tears are not discharged along the nose but left along the hair, which can breed bacteria and a substance called "porphyrin", which begin to oxidize after contact with the air, and eventually become rust-colored. Long-term moisture around the eyes can easily cause skin diseases.

As for how to prevent the abnormal discharge of tears, I haven't completely overcome it yet, but I still have a little experience about how to clean and prevent the hair and skin lesions around the eyes after the tears flow out. Today, I will share my steps to clean eyes of grizzly bears.

Eye cleaning practice ing

1: Tool preparation

If you want to do a good job, you must first sharpen your tools. To clean eyes of grizzly bears, you must first prepare the tools for cleaning the eyes. The most basic one is warm water (if the skin of the eyes is diseased or the tear stain area is very large or the tear stain has turned black, you can consider using 2% boric acid solution) + medical sterile absorbent cotton (if you feel troublesome). A clean cotton pad is also OK (^-^) V).

2: Cleaning

Let the grizzly lie between my legs in her comfortable position, holding the grizzly's head in place. You can choose to put 2 drops of eye wash directly on the dog's eyes, or you can choose to smother the grizzly bear's eyes with a cotton ball soaked in warm water. Because grizzly is not the kind of very good dog, after all, she is in the puppy stage, it is easy to be impatient, I chose to try not to let her reject the way, that is, stuffy massage method o (* ^ @ ^ *) o.

Hold the grizzly bear for 10 to 15 seconds. No dog likes to have water on his eyes. If she is not careful, she will take advantage of the loophole to escape. After boring for a while, you will notice that the secretion in the eyes and in the corners of the eyes are softened. Use a cotton pad to gently wipe the grizzly's eyelids (but not the eyes!!!). Basically, you can easily wipe the dirt off. For the parts that are not easy to wipe on the inside of the canthus, choose a cotton swab to wipe.

3: Wipe dry

Finally, wipe the eyes with absorbent cotton balls, repeatedly wipe the tear stains with cotton balls immersed in warm water, and finally dry the eyes with clean absorbent cotton balls.

Eye Care Practice ing

After cleaning the eyes with warm water, it's time to start the follow-up care part, which is simply to drop eye drops.

1: Tool preparation

2: Drop eye drops

The eyedrop of the dog chooses a few milder as far as possible, can buy special dog eyedrop, also can choose children Ledun eyedrop this kind. Mild anti-inflammatory, because the grizzly's eyelids often appear secretion, which proves that there is more or less inflammation, so I use eye drops. If there is no inflammation in the eyes of dogs, but the nasolacrimal duct is blocked, just wash the eyes and around the eyes.

The specific operation method is to control the dog's head, keep a certain distance, quickly drop eye drops into the grizzly bear's eyes (preferably the whites of the eyes, even in the eyes without drops), and then do not immediately let the grizzly bear out, she will quickly shake her head. To help the grizzly bear close his eyes, massage the inner eyelids and around the eyes so that the eye drops can be fully absorbed.

Finally, comb the hair under the eyes with a comb, and let the hair that is not completely dry dry naturally.

Finally, a complete video description is attached, because the grizzly bear is still in the puppy stage, all the eye cleaning methods I chose are the most mild and safe, the effect may not be so obvious, but after a week of persistence, although she still has tears, but there is no secretion discharged ~ (~) (~) ~
