has anyone any tips on how to clear up a gunky eye, its a greeny colour and loads of it is coming out of Als eye. He also seems to be going baldy across the eye from scratching it! It doesnt seem to be annoying his sleep and is still wanting to go his walks every night.Thanks

Sounds like a spot of conjunctivitis, in which case a trip to the vet might be needed. You could try wiping the eye gently with some boiled, cooled water, or a wet tea bag!

Wet tea bags are great for it.

My wife let Blue out in the garden today when I was at work. My sister was round having a brew and when she left after about half an hour they opened the front door and Blue walked down the path and straight in Laughing
No idea how he managed to get over the 7ft fence. Maybe our dogs are all meeting up for a round of golf

I took Tilly to the Vet early last week because of her eye's being a bit like that , but the goo was white/ clear and she had picked up a little infection, fine after a week of drops.
I have something nagging in the back of my head that the colour was relevant for some reason with it being green, as we discusse dit but I can't remember for the life of me what it was. Really think you should take a trip to the vets just to be on the safe side

Found this link for you , not had time to read it but it looks interesting for you

I think I'd take a trip to the vet just to be safe in case it's something that could be serious. It's best to catch issues early if possible.

If it's green discharge it probably is an infection, if its clear it would be OK. You will need to get some drops from the vet.

It should be cleared up in a few days.
