A one-month-old puppy has one eye bigger than the other and that eye keeps discharging; I don’t know why.

A puppy’s tearing can come from ingrown lashes, irritants, blocked tear ducts, heat or eye infection. First check for foreign objects or irritating smells and flush with saline, then apply eye drops.
Trim hair that pokes the eye, and if there is redness, discharge or inability to open, see the vet for infection. A one-month-old should still drink its mother’s milk; if the mother or pup eats greasy heating food it causes tear stains, so watch the diet.

← A two-month-old Golden Retriever had mild diarrhea and no appetite yesterday but was energetic; today it eats well, coughs a bit, and after a shot its temperature was 39.5C. Since the shot it is listless and keeps sleeping.
My three-and-a-half-month-old rabbit grew this over the last two days and I used an mouth-ulcer medicine. How long until it heals? →
