Pink eye, again

Posted by Holly.

Once again Mira’s managed to get pink eye. Only one eye this time, at least. And so far I’ve managed to give her a dose of ointment tonight with nobody extra to hold her down. From what I can gather from the internet, it seems that the pink eye should not be contagious to any of us. Anyone feel lucky enough to test this? :)

It also seems to not be as contagious from dog to dog as the human to human variety is. I suspect that’s because it’s far less improbable for one dog to wipe his or her eye on their paw, touch something that another dog comes along and touches, and then that dog rubbing his or her eye with the paw that touched the something.
