Chamomile for dog eyewash

by Ellen
(San Fernando Valley, Ca)

Our dog got into some roadside weeds and scratched his eye. His eye clouded over. We thought he might lose his sight. The vet recommended drugs that I thought were overkill and they did not work anyway. ( He is a good vet-very kind and knowledgeable.) I used a chamomile tea eyewash when it looked like it was not recovering on its own. Its easy to do, the dog can even drink it for good measure and our dog did not mind. I also kept the area clean. His eye is totally recovered.


Editor's note: Thank you for sharing your experience, Ellen. We are glad your dog's eye is completely healed. We assume that you need to make sure the tea is lukewarm or cooled down, not hot, right?
