Why are my dog’s eyes red?
Red eyes can come from trauma, 'heat', eye inflammation, or infection. When dust, fur, or a foreign object gets into the eye, the dog rubs and the eye turns red — remove the object and use an antibacterial eye drop. If symptoms are severe or joined by other signs, see a vet.

Bacterial cases often respond to drops containing lysozyme or oxytetracycline, but poor response means another cause needs identifying.
