Why is my dog's eye teary and low after a walk and dog fight?

Question

I took my dog for a walk and when we got home a little after wards I realized one of her eyes was low and teary like looking. She also got in quarrel with my other dog, she has been around grass, so I don't see how they can be a factor. What's your guess?

Hi, it is difficult to tell for sure without a proper clinical examination. My worry would be like yours, that Daisy ‘s cornea has been accidentally scratched. This is something that normally occurs acutely in one of the eyes, especially after a walk and a scrabble between dogs. I would recommend that you gently clean the are around Daisy’s eye just with some mild salty water, boil some water then put a dessert spoon of salt in a mug, stir and leave it too cool down. When lukewarm just wipe the discharge around the eye and monitor for the next hour. If Daisy appears to be in pain, or if there is is still quite a bit of discharge,I suggest you see a vet early today. The reason being she could have suffered a traumatic injury. If she seems almost back to her normal self, I would recommend that you see a vet during normal hours just to have some appropriate treatment.
