She had major allergy goop eyes and eventually they got them under control - after the dog had to go to some sort of doggie eye doctor. Yes, there apparently are such things.<BR/><BR/>Anyway - I still want a bulldog. I don't care if they're a 50 lbs. farting smelly wreck with drool and goopy eyes.<BR/><BR/>Just thought I'd share.KGhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10236206776336550381noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-30765699.post-72826079875023776852008-09-16T22:22:00.000-04:002008-09-16T22:22:00.000-04:00*oi* poor Meg!

They're loaded with personality like your Meg. Now we have a boring Chihuahua with nearly zero personality but she almost never stinks. It's amazing combo. Probably the only reason we'll kept her around for 4 years. Hope Meg's goop clears soon.Birdiehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16421900422424458803noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-30765699.post-32464461761503847382008-09-16T13:32:00.000-04:002008-09-16T13:32:00.000-04:00OMG, I love that dog so much!

Have you gotten a second opinion? When we moved and started going to this new vet, he realized that our beagles allergies could be controlled by changing her diet. She is now on hypo-allergenic food, which has cleared up most of her problems! I'm so glad we found him and he figured this out! (Our dogs allergies manifested primarily with anal gland issues, which was NOT PLEASANT!) <BR/><BR/>You should really ask around for other opinions if things are as serious as they sound. Not that you asked my advice, but there it is. hehe.caramamahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02327695885346537321noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-30765699.post-519245321984073162008-09-15T16:56:00.000-04:002008-09-15T16:56:00.000-04:00One of my cats has the a herpes virus that manifes...One of my cats has the a herpes virus that manifests itself as goopy eyes when he's stressed or the pollen count is really high.

Lily, who gets occasional yeast infections in the folds of her face, has had nasty black goo forming there all summer. It's a constant battle to stay ahead of it all. I now have her on an antifungal med, special pledgets, and Otomax in the folds. She hates it. <BR/><BR/>Bodhi has had - no kidding - e.Coli in his face this summer. The vet doesn't even know how it happened, because normally e.Coli won't colonize in the facial folds. (So even though Bodhi has to stick his face in ever pile of poop he finds on our walkies, cleaning him up should have been enough). He has extra droopy eyes, too, so though he doesn't have entropion or anything causing them to water excessively, he may have to have an eye lift to keep them from running tears constantly into his facial folds. <BR/><BR/>Every night it's the same thing. Clean the wrinkles, medicate the wrinkles, clean the butts, try to keep them from rubbing all of the meds off into our carpet or the new bed. <BR/><BR/>Dog days indeed!<BR/><BR/>Peace - DRiverPoethttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01846730934649303857noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-30765699.post-22168649533380041772008-09-15T10:34:00.000-04:002008-09-15T10:34:00.000-04:00This is why I told Hubby he can not have one of th...This is why I told Hubby he can not have one of these dogs no matter how much he whines and moans about it.

The vet just prescribes steriods for his worst outbreaks, which only solves the problem for a while, and does not help with the already overweight basset. I'm terribly interested in hearing what they find out about Meg, as maybe it would direct us in the right direction with the basset.<BR/><BR/>I also share your husbands passion for bulldogs, but as a person who lives paycheck to paycheck, I doubt I'll ever have one.
