Update on Pip

[Ben&Cricket]

I am sure it is a challenge to put eye drops on Pip's eyes. Thoughts and prayers go with you on Monday when you take Pip back to the vet. You take care too!!

Poor little Pipster. We have finally gotten Maudie to the point where she will put up with drops. My son flips her on her back like a big baby and she just lies there. Hopefully, he'll get there. Depending on what he's getting for his eyes, it might sting. I know that some of the eye meds do.
Good treats, lots of patience for Pip and hugs to you, Nicky. You should probably send Cecil to me. It's traumatic for him to watch all of this....

As Becky well remembers Pip can scream for Britain when being held, he now however has developed a form of snapping his teeth, shaking his head and clamping the injured eye shut. I keep counting my fingers and I'm OK so far!!

Uncle Cecil is packing as I type this!!!

I know your struggles with the eyedrops. Misty just got diagnosed with PK and now it's gel in the morning in each eye, and drops at night. Every day. The drops are way easier than the gel, but a fellow pug-lover told me to use the "direct approach" like the vets do- no nonsense- put pug on table or chair, put treats where they can see them, put drop in one eye- give treat, repeat for other eye. I feel sad for Misty cuz she doesn't like it, but I know it's for her own good, and have to use a little "tough love". She seems to forget about it as soon as the treat hits her little mouth! Good luck!

Poor Pip, I can't understand why they need to do this 3 times, but suppose they are the experts!
Big hugs to Pip and you, it's such a worry.
