It sounds like your dog's constant eye watering could indicate an underlying issue. While some dogs may experience watery eyes occasionally, persistent tearing should be evaluated.
- Persistent eye watering is not normal and should be checked.
- There may be an underlying cause that needs addressing.
- Early evaluation can prevent potential complications.
Excessive tearing in dogs can stem from various causes, such as allergies, blocked tear ducts, or mild irritation. Without redness or swelling, it might not seem serious, but ongoing symptoms suggest a visit to the vet for a proper diagnosis. Treatment can vary depending on the cause, ranging from simple lifestyle adjustments to medication.
