My Dauschund Has One Droopy Eye Tonight. What Could This Be From?

She was recently dx. With congestive heart failure and is on meds and seems to be doing well this week. I just noticed the droopy eye about an hour ago.

    One droopy eyelid could be a sign that the motor nerve supply to the muscles of the eyelid and or face has been interrupted.  This could result from a number of different causes and should be investigated with full neurological examination from your vet.  Take care to ensure your dog’s eye is not drying out, you may use natural tears, monitor him/her for any other signs and see your local veterinarian.
