Re: pink eye
hiya,
i would take your pup to the vet ASAP (if you haven't already). its never a good idea to use people-medicine for dogs, even though saline is just salt/water solution dogs have different constitutions than humans (pH levels, medication requirements/tolerance) so they need doggy-specific treatment.
pink eye is an infection so needs medicated treatment rather than just straight saline anyway
