How do you apply Neo-Poly-Bac Ophthalmic Ointment to a dogs eye?

You have to hold the dog's head still, don't poke him in the eye! Once you have the head, you need to pull the upper and lower lids open with one hand, in a spreading motion with your fingers. The dog will fight, but don't worry, you're not hurting him. Squeeze a thin line of the ointment onto the eye, using the bottom lid as a sort of cup to keep it from getting out of the eye, then let the dog blink it around to get it smeared on the eye. Don't worry if some oozes out, that's normal. Make sure to give the dog a treat to tell him that its okay and he was a good dog.
