Hello, my dog got in a fight with another dog & her eye was bit the other dog would not leg go & now its been a couple hours her eye is very swollen & I'm worried. Is there anything I could possibly give her? I have tried to ice the area & give put neosporin on the area. Pet's info: Dog | Mixed Breed | Female | spayed | 60 lbs

I am so sorry to hear about your dog. It sounds like you have done all you are going to be able to do for her at home. I would recommend a visit to the emergency vet if there is one in your area, if not see your vet first thing in the morning as she is likely going to need oral antibiotics as well as pain medication, and should have the eye examined to be sure there was no damage to the eye itself. Continue to ice the area to help with pain and swelling until she is seen. You can take a bag of frozen peas or corn and wrap in a thin cloth/towel (don't put the ice pack directly on the skin with no barrier in between) for 5-10 minutes every few hours if she will tolerate this. Do not give any over the counter pain medication because these can be poorly tolerated by dogs and may cause more harm than good.

Unfortunately there is nothing I'd recommend doing at home and I would recommend seeing a veterinarian right away. If Cookie has a scratch on the surface of the eye it could quickly become infected and cause her to lose vision in that eye. If the wound is near the eye it could become infected and oral antibiotics are probably the best way to prevent this from happening. While aspirin can be given to dogs I don't recommend it since it can cause stomach upset easily and limits the better choices that your veterinarian might prescribe since aspirin interacts with many drugs.

I am very sorry to hear about Cookie. While it isn't possible for us to diagnose based on a photo I am concerned this could potentially be a perforation of the cornea due to a deep ulcer (basically a hole in the surface of the eye and you are seeing the vitreous inside the eye coming out). This would be considered an emergency and I would recommend travel to an emergency vet if at all possible. If one is not available, then keep her as quiet as possible until your vet opens and if you have an e-collar put it on her so she cannot rub or scratch at the eye and cause it to worsen.
