AS YOU CAN SEE IN MY DOGS PICTURE, SHE HAS WHAT APPEARS TO BE AN ENLARGED TEAR DUCT. I TOOK HER TO THE VET AND WAS TOLD ITS CALLED CHERRY EYE, WHICH I WAS TOLD IS SWELLING OF THE THIRD EYELID? I USED TO BE ABLE TO GIVE HER A SMALL AMOUNT OF BENADRYL AND THAT WOULD MAKE IT GO AWAY. AS SHE GOT OLDER IT BECAME LESS AND LESS EFFECTIVE. I HAVE A SURGERY PLANNED TO GET IT REMOVED BUT NOT FOR A FEW MONTHS. I WAS WONDERING IF ANYONE ELSE'S DOG HAD THIS CONDITION, AND IS THERE ANYTHING I CAN GIVE HER TO MAKE IT GO AWAY BECAUSE IT LOOKS LIKE IT HURTS!!!
