The Risk of Fun in the Yard

As you know, Monty loves being outside. He digs.  He eats little green apples.  He finds bunnies.  He brings in birds.  He runs. He plays. He eats grass.  He's given me poison ivy (thanks so much!).  He trails the fox, who thankfully stays on the other side of the invisible fence, up and down the side yard.  He goes through bushes and brambles to find exciting things to do. Well all of this is great - in spite of having to fill in holes.  Except for the past few days, Monty's right eye was weepy and he wasn't opening it fully.  So this morning I brought him to the vet.  Luckily no ulcers or scratches.  (He got the same yellow stain, I get when I go to the eye Dr.!)  But there is definitely an irritant.   So eye washes and ointment.  If its not "drastically better" by Monday, Monty will be back at the vets.  By end of day today, his first day.  He was holding his eye open better.  I'll know by tomorrow night if he goes back to the vet.  Here's hoping we don't have to go back.
