Thanks yet again, Penny! Bless you! 🎁
Alarm bells rang as I read your last post....
I phoned usual vet to have it confirmed that there is the start of glaucoma in each eye: tried to get an earlier AHT appointment, but without success. Then spoke to usual vet again, who said, a v dilated eye, swollen and sore with pain issues was an instant indicator of an emergency; to take Millie to them and they would refer immediately to AHT. In this situation in the past, dogs have been seen at AHT on arrival.
So, as Millie's current condition is the same as at Monday's vet examination, I'm praying it will stay that way till Tuesday coming. Any changes and there'll be no tread left on the car tyres as it'll get burnt off on our way to the vets.
Sadly, last night she couldn't find her way back indoors through the dog flap, until I switched the kitchen light on and lifted the flap myself...
