Rebel is crying

[Howard4567@aol.com]

Man, this is a new one on me.  My daughters Arab, Rebel, is literally crying 
(maybe he read one of my stories).  I mean for real.  I noticed it this 
morning.  Wet streams below the eye.  And on a grey you can notice wetness on 
the skin.  That's when they really look grey.

Called the vet and found out she's on vacation.  The guy filling in for her 
has yet to return my calls.  So I'm calling all the other vets around here to 
try and get someone out to my place quick.  My book says it's a blocked tear 
duck and the vet can unblock it by inserting a tube.  Where does this tube go 
that is to be inserted?  In the eye?  Yuck.  Is this an emergency situation?

So, anyone have any experinece with this?  There's no swelling, a touch of 
grey mucus, but not a whole lot, but lots of crying.  And I did flush with 
water and looked for any debris in his eyes (this was lots of fun I must say; 
I took a bath).  Didn't see any.

Help me Heidi, help, help me Heidi (sung to the Beach Boys hit of a long, 
long time ago).  

cya,
