 Blood shot eyes
by: Maddix's Mom

Maddix tends to get blood shot eyes at night time, when he is tired as well. My vet recommended children Benadryl ( worst case scenario), if you feel that it maybe due to allergies.For instance, if you BP was playing outside in weeds and suddenly seems to have irritated eyes, it's a temporary fix.Best of luck :)

 Blood shot eyes in a BT
by: Anonymous

I think blood shot eyes and Bostons must go hand in hand because mine do the same thing. I haven't noticed it in my female puppy yet but my adult male gets them either when he is excited or very tired but it goes away pretty fast. I also, think they are prone to allergies and it can be a result of that too.

There are several reasons for blood shot eyes; you can search on the Internet and find them, but I would suggest you take your Boston to the vet's. Eyesight is precious. Good luck.

 Mine too

My BT gets blood shot eyes whenever she is really tired or has been rolling in the grass/dirt too long. Most likely your bts eyes are the same issue. I have found it very common that it happens when they are tired.

 Blood Shot Eyes

My Bostons get blood shot eyes when they are very tired. It happens every night if I stay up too late. When we have to stay up past the usual time, I get a bed on the floor for them. So perhaps yours needs a little nap or it's time to go to bed. As long as they clear up I'm sure it's ok but to be sure ask your vet.
