Dr.Melanie, BVSc, MS- THANK YOU! I don’t need to try and take them out at all? I just leave it be? Nothing bad will happen? Here’s a picture of the last post and a picture of Tiny to make your day!

I agree with Dr. Melanie. I would not be worried. You can use this eye wash daily or when you notice the hairs if you want to. It won't hurt and it may help! https://www.petco.com/shop/en/petcostore/product/vetericyn-plus-eye-wash-for-dogs
