Please help! My dog's eyeballs have retreated up into their orbit and won't come down! What's wrong with him?

He's 8years old and now he can't open his right eyelid! What's wrong with him? Has he gone blind? I'm so worried and it's night time here..there are no vets around! He's been like this for the last 3hours!

Seriously?! For gods sake take him to the vet! If you have no vet even remotely closs to you, you should not be owning a dog!

You HAVE TO FIND A VET. There is nothing we can do & this sounds serious. You should be on your way to find a Vet instead of sitting infront of your computer.Go find a Vet.

Call your vet anyway. They monitor their calls. This will elicit a call back from them. They can give you the name of a 24 hour vet if your vet is not available. There is no one here who can recommend what to do for your dog other than you get it the medical attention it needs.

You need to find an emergency vet. Look in the phone book or online, call to tell them you're coming, and get over there, even if you have to drive for awhile.

Most vets will have an emergency number to call on their answering system. CALL ONE!

Where do you live that there are no vets around during the day? Put him in the car, and drive him to a vet, no matter where it is. Stop making phone calls and wasting time on the computer
