Urr....it's more on the bottom part of the eye. (IE. below the black eyeball). I don't think he's got distemper (althought I have not seen doggies with distemper before), becoz' he is very active, noicy & joyful.
cd moo..what breed of dog do you own? If you look at some pictures of basset hounds, you can see that their eye is also slightly reddish under the eyeball..
I've started digging some info. and found the followings: www.labbies.com/eye.htm , under the section "DISORDERS OF THE EYELIDS" .. It could be due to this. Anyway, tonite I will 'dig' out his eye and find out :) regards,
