depending if it needs stitches or not. disenfect with a cotton swab with peroxide immediately to prevent infection. keep the lid off eyeball as you apply peroxide. then with eyelid held in place after holding for 30 seconds for peroxide to work *this is difficult dog will want to squirm* wash away with several passes of lukewarm water. repeat this step no more than twice a day for 1 to 3 days depending on severity of injury. use neosporin to treat the wound. place small band aid on eye. if this is enough to irritate the dog to want to rip it off . if your dog is really mellow you can bandage the eye shut so as not to move and wrap bandage around the head, and remove bandage once a day to clean , rinse, and re neosporine the wound with a fresh bandaid until fully healed. if this doesnt work , you would need to make a large funnel to keep dog from gaining access to eyes with paw. dog will not like this. you may also be able to take to the animal shelter where they can give you a look at the dog for a discount if youre short on cash, or just wait for someone outside the shelter to come by thats walking into work and ask if they could please have a quick look and they can decide if further medical treatment is needed. they wont refuse an injured animal and can bill you later at an animal shelter.

You should not keep animals if you are not willing to take them to receive veterinary treatment. Specially when you are asking people online who may not have the proper training, and cannot properly ascess the injury. Take the animal to the vet.

That is a valid point but $700 to $900 for stitches is totally unreasonable…. I think there needs to be Vetcare reform as well..It is horrendous the the charges that are charged, and yes I know there is Vet insurance but that is outrageous as well if available. If opportunity allows (not after regular hours and an emergency) call around and get the price that you can afford 2nd opinions are valuable here as well. Unfourtunatly Vets are not good about posting the fees they charge so you have to do the leg work so you are not taken advantage of.
