Doggles?
Oppie has taken up the hobby of rabbit-scenting. We've been allowing
him off leash in an area that has a lot of scrubby brush and juniper, and he runs around like a fool with his nose to the ground, trying to pick up the scent of a rabbit. In the past week, he has scratched each of his eyes and is now getting medication to help them heal. I don't want to deprive him of this new-found pleasure; I want to get him some eye protection. I've seen "Doggles" on a couple of web sites. Has anyone used these, or any other type of doggie goggles? Comments pro or con? Thanks!

You will certainly have to get him used to wearing them.My friend has a
convertable and her cocker wears doggles when the top is down. Good for you for not wanting to stop his fun! -- Carol J Cocker Spaniel Rescue of BC www.csrbc.org "FurPaw" wrote in message ...

[Piggybacking 'cause I didn't get the OP.] If you do try them, please report back. I'd love to know myself. I haven't used them but have been interested for a while, and will likely buy some in the coming months. Orson's sight is getting noticeably worse now, and he's bumping into things a lot more often--including brush, like Oppie. I'm increasingly concerned about his rupturing an eye, and some kind of barrier like Doggles or a hoop (http://www.pepedog.com/vests.htm) is probably in our near future. Cate |
