Horners syndrom

[Joannie]

Anyone ever heard of this or any bodys babies had this, my vet thinks my Bailey may have this, the symptoms are very red sclera, constricted pupil,downward turning of the mouth, there are many reasons for this, scary, I have him on eye drops 3x a day. Joann


It seems to mimic some signs of a stroke!

I've never heard of this. I hope that you find out what is causing this. Big bear hugs and good thoughts on the way for you and Bailey.

Thank you for your concern, Baileys eye looks better I have been putting eye drops in 3x a day, so hopefully when its time to stop it won't return. I am thinking also that my new puppy may be part of the cause. A neck injury can bring this on and Rusty[new baby] wants to play with Bailey and pokes him in the neck, so maybe that is the cause.

I have never heard of it in dogs or people. So I learned something new today. Hope Bailey is soon feeling better!
