my dogs a hypochondriac

[williamalex1]

More problems with our 6yr old Shi Tzu , she has blood shot eyes , vet checked and said no ulcers or scratches, thinks she has dry eyes and maybe an allergy to something. She prescribed a small tube of ointment costing £45 and for me to buy Hypromellose eye drops from the chemist , total including consultation £80.
Anyone been in the same situation., any other treatment etc.
BTW. not to dry my eyes.
thanks in advance.

I totally agree, its the wife's dog, I hate having to walk it with my hand on my hip, and puckered lips.:rofl:

My big Lab recently ate something very unpleasant on Turnberry beach.
It must have been a lot worse than his normal dead seagulls and rotting seal corpses.
He then came home and proceeded to eat half a shrubbery to make himself sick.

That's a proper dog.

He once found a dead pheasant in the River Stinchar. I tried to get it off him and he just moved further into the river.
He looked at me with that 'I should not really be doing this' look that labradors have perfected and then started eating the carcase.
He had the body in his mouth and the pair of wings started to move like the dead bird was flying.

Give him the boot.

Give him a boot up his behind.

He once ripped £200 up into little bits. Took the mrs ages to try & match numbers up on notes so we could swap em. Think we lost £40 in end.

Blame pet insurance for the ridiculous prices vets charge these days.
Have a look online and check some of the prices for commonly prescribed pet antibiotics (Synulox etc), and wormers (Milbemax, Drontal etc).
Don't even get me started on the subject of neutering, castration, and yearly booster vaccinations.

I once went to a Zoo that had only one dog in it!

It was a Shi Tzu.

If you want low-maintenance dogs, don't go down the counter-evolutionary highly-bred path.

Are you sure it's the dog that's the hypochondriac though?

I found that vet bills in Scotland are a hell of a lot lower than in England.
