    Ouch, I have heard of that condition where the bottom lashes grow inward scratching the eye, Iv never heard it happen to a pug though. Poor guy :( Is it still like that or were you able to get it fixed? Im scared of anesthesia, so I wouldnt feel comfortable getting Ruby the nose surgery. And to be honest, I also dont really trust any of the vets in my area to perform something like that properly. So many issues even just when she got spayed.

    i trust my vet for things like surgery and the eye surgery was performed by a wonderful specialist.....other than a 20% loss of vision in both eyes, he is fixed.....as i've said, i wish i had gotten him as a baby and then he would not have lost any vision.

    if only he advocated raw, i'd be in heaven.

    i had had my doubts, but he was being neutered, so he was already under....made the decision easier and now if g'f forbid, he ever needs surgery, he can have anaesthesia......

    now that i know what i know...i would do it prophylactically.
