Before I spend $$ at the vet, I'm wondering if anyone else has seen this. My llewellin's eyes and the skin around her eyes are very red after time in the field. She hunts hard and jets through heavy cover, but this looks more like allergies. I also noticed that she was sneezing in the field yesterday. Any thoughts? |

I think your dogs problem is due to dust, pollen and other assorted crap that is stirred up as he/she is running through the weeds and tall grass.
My Llewellins had the same problem and my current Llewellin is in worse shape because he is built closer to the ground than the others were. |
