Nothing is ever easy with Quid.
Quid came back with a gross looking eye, so I had the vet take a look at it. Vet A looked last week and said it was not entropion. I was surprised, because I thought I saw the lid roll when I touched it. This is the same eye that has been tacked before, and the symptoms were identical. But no surgery, yay! She sent me home with eye drops.
Fast forward to today. The eye is less puffy and red, but its running and he's pawing it. Vet B took one look and said its entropion. Vets A and B then had a phone conversation in which tnry disagreed about the diagnosis. Long story short, Quid will be looked at by both of them as well as Vet C on Tuesday, at which point a formal diagnosis will be made.
I know that I'm not a vet, but I do know what entropion looks like, and I know what it looks like in this specific dog. If Quiddich doesn't get his eye tacked Tuesday, I'll eat my hat.
Vibes that the problem is fixed quickly? I would love to be wrong about this, but hopefully he has an easy recovery
