My Boston Terrier's eyes point different ways. Is this a problem?

Updated On September 23rd, 2025

Pet's info: Dog | Boston Terrier | Female | spayed | 2 years and 11 months old | 14.4 lbs

My Boston Terrier can move her eyes in different directions. One can be looking straight ahead while the other is looking to the side. Is this normal?

This is not normal. This is something that you can see in dogs with flat faces and big eyes. Less commonly it could indicate a neurological disease. I recommend to play it safe and have Izzie checked by the veterinarian. I hope this helps and please feel free to post any additional questions.
