I was wondering if any of you guys have had to deal with "Cherry Eye" with your dogs? Our English Bulldog puppy just developed it and we are looking at all the options for her treatment. We have taken her to the vet and he has said that surgery would be around $1000. Any input or advice from someone who has already dealt with this would be greatly appreciated.

Your vet is trying to gouge you sounds like to me. I raise and train beagles and that breed also is prone to get Cherry Eye. My vet cut one off of my friends beagle for about $75.00 bucks.

I do know some of the old time beaglers do it themselves, ( bleeds profusely BTW)

I don't know if English bulldog's cherry eye could be that much different.

Sounds like a country club vet, I would definately shop around.

You probably don't live near Shelby NC but if you did there are several very good vets there that I use.

Here's a site with some info

Don't have the issue with mine, but it is very common.

Find a vet that loves the breed, and one that isn't trying to bend you over, and the will do it for a couple hundred, at most.

Call every vet, especially the ones that are out in the country, not in town. Their overhead is soooo much lower.

I have and raise English Bulldogs and they are very prone to getting cherry eye. I've had to have "cherry eye" surgery 3 times on a couple of my bullies. Depending on the size of the dog (anesthesia) you shouldnt pay more than $100. I recommend Dr.Pete at Clemmons veterinary clinic...336-766-8511. He is a english bulldog specialist and the best vet I've ever known. He is a straight shooter and doesnt charge you an arm and a leg, besides that he is very smart. I travel about an hour just for him to see my bulldogs. Don't take your English bulldog to just any vet, they have breathing issues anyway and anesthia is tricky with these guys.

Oh, and run from the vet that said it'd cost $1000. That guy/gal is in it for the wrong reasons and is trying to break one off in you!

      PFF ranks the 2025 starting QBs

      By frankw · Posted

      We both know there's more that goes into batted passes than just the height of the QB. Most people here have readily acknowledged this and there were numerous discussions about it before we drafted Young. But if you are presenting a POV that Bryce's height hasn't tied to issues with his footwork then there's nothing anyone is going to be able to say to sway you and you know this. Even beyond the footwork I recall a redzone play where Bryce couldn't see around his right tackle at all where a receiver was waiting practically alone in the end zone for a touchdown. There are real world circumstances that are going to show up over the course of the upcoming season and it's up to Bryce and Dave Canales to make adjustments and do anything they can to mitigate negative instances and yes that begins with Bryce's footwork again. Thanks for your time. Have a nice weekend.

      I'm arguing that should those supposed deficiencies, like height or pocket footwork, be as consequential as you and others have claimed, then there would be a clear, observable impact in the data. That's not unreasonable. For example, batted passes are often used as a size-related concern (see: Baker Mayfield), yet Bryce ranked among the lowest in deflections at the line. If his stature is such a limitation, why isn't it showing up there? Or are you suggesting that's why his passing yards fall short of your expectations? If the latter, I would hope that you're not discounting yards left on the field due to drops (of which he led the league in).  Also, asking for specific, measurable benchmarks isn't aggression... it's accountability. If that feels uncomfortable, it might be worth reflecting on how much of your anti-Bryce argument is grounded in subjective perception rather than objective metrics. So, again: do you have any specific KPIs beyond total passing yardage, height, and weight that you consider relevant to evaluating whether a QB is top-10? If you want to add YPA and passing yards per game to those metrics, that's fair, just be clear about it. But let's not pretend that asking for clarity is some kind of provocation. I'm simply trying to understand the actual criteria... not just the vibes.

      Jackson actually played quite well for a #2 CB #54 in PFF coverage ratings 12 pass break ups solid in run defense..... Hes gonna be targeted just because Jacyee IS being avoided.
