My dog has blood red second eyelids?
It's definatley not cherry eye. It's like her seconds eyelids when you lift up her eyelids and when she looks to the side. She is a wheaten terrier/westie cross and she went to the groomers for the first time and when she came back her left eye was like this, her actual eyeball isn't bloodshot at all. anyway, the next day her other eye was the same. She got groomed on thursday. Do you think it is the stress of it? I just want an opinion before I go rushing to the vets if it's nothing, because it's nearly an hour away! thanks =]
Definitely see a vet. If the groomers got shampoo or whatnot in her eyes she may be having a reaction to whatever they used. Think of it this way — if your eyelids became red and inflamed would you wait to go to the doctor? Unlikely! I'd be freaking out!

Could be Pinkeye. Get her into the vet for meds. If it's Pinkeye, chances are it has nothing to do with the groomer.

I had a bad experience with a "groomer" too. It's not from the stress of it.
You need to go to the vet ASAP. And the groomer should be notified immediately of the problem as well. Ask them how many other dogs were groomed and even bathed with her. Let the groomer know right now.
