Best Answer

A puppy's eyes should be clear, with no red coloration to the whites. There should also not be any heavy discharge, discoloration, cloudiness, or tearing in your puppy's eyes.

The most common condition in dogs and puppies that causes red eyes is Conjunctivitis, which is an inflammation of the mucous membranes of the eye. The eye reddens because of the increased flow of blood, and there is sometimes also swelling of the mucous membranes. Causes include infection, scratches, and eye irritants like smoke or dust.

It's also possible your puppy has a prolapsed third eyelid.

Nobody can diagnose your puppy online. Treatments will vary depending on what the problem actually is.

You should not delay in having your puppy examined by a veterinarian.

Eyes have a bloodshot appearance when the blood vessel capillaries near the surface of the sclera (white portion of eye) become irritated and enlarged. There are several different reasons this may occur from dry air to contact lenses to activity creating excessive pressure in eye area.

Does blood thinner cause bloodshot eye?

no, it would not cause your eyes to be bloodshot. Bloodshot eyes come from inflammation of the conjunctiva (the mucus membranes over your eyes/eyelids). Thinning of the blood could not cause conjunctivitis (bloodshot eyes) unless you have an allergy to that medication that could cause bloodshot eyes (which I would think would be almost impossible).
