eyes opening

my british bulldog puppies are now 12 days old why haven't they opened their eyes?



Hi Andy
Most puppies open their eyes somewhere between the time they're 10 days and 2 weeks old.

I wouldn't worry about it as yours are only 12 days old. With the kind of wrinkly faces little bulldogs have, it may be difficult to notice when their eyes start to 'crack open'.

If there's been no progress by the time they turn 2 weeks, check with your vet. But I doubt very much that there is anything to be concerned about.

My New Born Puppies and Puppy Development pages might be useful/interesting for you as you raise these pups.

Best of luck.
