SjohnA Jan 2021 4:52pm, 12 Jan 2021 250 posts	Quote Pin SjohnA Absolutely - It's a long time (14 years) since I had a whippet puppy and you have just reminded me that even I was wary of him when he was a bitey pup! Whippets have long big mouths full of sharp teeth. Kipps used to remind me of the monster in the Alien movies! It does get better - much better! Hang in there!!!

Roberto Jan 2021 7:28pm, 12 Jan 2021 1,639 posts	Quote Pin Roberto Arlo had it. Trip to the vets, antibiotic eye drops for 2 weeks. Was a nightmare. Eye drops are awful. His eyes are gunky still and we are like 2/3 months in. Had had different drops since but they are still irritated.
