Friday – While at St Lawrence Tess developed a weeping eye and we had to bathe it and try to keep it moist (she is not a good patient!). It was getting no better so we knew we had to find a vet and the closest was here at Sarina so here we are at the Tropicana Caravan Park within smelling distance of the Sugar Mill!
Took the old dog to the Vet the same afternoon and found that she had a paralysis tick in her eyelid! Very lucky that it had not got into her nervous system and she seems to be recovering quite Ok by now (Sunday) but is not easy to administer (an understatement) the ointment we are supposed to put on the eye twice a day! And especially since we bought her a tick collar a fortnight ago and hadn’t put it on her, silly us!
