Red Eyes

by Phantom
(Maine)

I took my Aussie to the vet because his eyes were red. The vet says he's fine but I have never seen a dog with such red eyes before... but this is my first Aussie. Any thoughts?

Ours too

I am so not an expert. I have never had a pet before. When my Aussie was a few months old, I asked my vet if his eyes were ok because they seemed red. He said they were fine. I still find them red sometimes and wondered if I should worry. Sorry to not be helpful, but I'm relieved to hear he's not the only one.

Our Aussie gets red eyes when he is really tired and/or not getting enough sleep.

We have two Aussies, one mini, Bailee, and one toy, Maggie, both 6 months old. Bailee's eyes get red when she is anxious and sometimes when she is excited. She has some separation anxiety and she gets red eyes, red inside her ears, and the center of her nose.

Your Aussie has either got an allergy or whether your dog was born with red eyes.

Make a note of the time of day and whether they are at a point they are likely tired. We thought the same until the vet and our dog's cousin had the same even at 9 years old.
Blushing

My 4 month old Aussie pup gets red eyes when she's excited (read positive or negative)! I kept thinking that something was wrong until I put two and two together. The reason this is so remarkable is that both eyes are really red one minute, and clear white the next. Her eyes are not runny, nor are they dry. I have never seen just one eye go red.

My pup has a solid temperament, is very active but not nervous at all. She is hands-down the happiest, heartiest pup I've ever seen. She talks a lot and is very smart. She is a black bi with strong pigmentation and no white around her dark brown eyes. I am a former breeder/exhibitor with a critical eye. I've been to many kennels around the country and have seen several eye problems, but nothing that resembles this. My only other suspicion might be high blood pressure but she is anything but ill, and as I said, it comes and goes quickly.
This pup was CERF cleared at 7 weeks. My regular vet gave me some Neomycin drops to use if I was worried about it, but they didn't make any difference. I still think I'm going to call the opthalmologist to run it by him.
P.S. Some parrots blush!
