Pet's info: Dog | Mixed Breed | Female | unspayed | 4 years and 9 months old | 30 lbs
My dogs got into a little arguement wed night, and my one has a cut above her eye. Ive been cleaning it twice a day, and applying blue kote for antiseptic. I didnt think the local vet (2 hours away) would sew it up so it could drain. I am just looking for reassurance the wound looks okay. She is eating, drinking, and acting pretty normal.

Stitches would make it heal faster but it looks fine and will likely heal OK. It will just take longer. Be careful what medications you use around the eye. Some medications, if they get in the eye, could cause eye irritation/damage.
