Sue, Bramble's brother Bramble also has quite runny eyes, and they seem more 'baggy' than aunty Barleys, but I just sponge them with tepid water if there is goo - I remember this when Barley was little, and because they rummage about in everything I just guess it's dust and stuff, but like the advice, check their eyelashes.... haven't heard from you for a while - our Bramble is a right little character and enjoying the icy puddles and has met a Bernese Mountain dog who is like a sized-up version of him almost (Bram is about the same size as Woody's head!!) By the way, my Bramble is tri-colour - what colour is your little girl?
