Pup health issues

Question

A lot has been going on with the pups. Twinkie had bad diarrhea. She was on meds and vet suggested food allergy. We are in the process of changing her food and it seems to be working.

Now an issue with Penny. Her right pupil is HUGE! She's in no pain, not rubbing it, it isn't red and she's acting normal. My vet said take her to an ophthalmologist. So that's where we're going this afternoon. Fingers crossed it's not serious, although I am very nervous. Agnes

Penny saw an ophthalmologist and a neurologist.  They have no answers.  Said it just happens to some young dogs (she's 3).  They'd be more concerned if she was older.  Told me to watch for other symptoms... walking weird, loss of appetite, seizures, etc. They said I could have an MRI done, which "might" show more, but at $3,500, I said "no thank you".  We'll keep a close eye on her.  Thanks everyone for your concern.  Agnes
