How long does it take for the puppy to open his eyes? The puppies usually open their eyes around 3 to 4 weeks after birth. From birth to 8 weeks of age, their eyes gradually become completely open.
Puppies usually gradually open their eyes within 1-2 weeks after birth, but there are individual differences. Some dogs have not even opened their eyes until 17 days after birth. At this time, the owner needs to take the dog to the hospital for examination in time and perform manual assistance in opening his eyes.
Because the time for a puppy to open its eyes will generally not exceed 15 days after birth, but remember not to force the dog's eyes to open its eyes by force, because puppy opens its eyes by itself is mostly a gradual process. If it is suddenly forced to open its eyes by someone, the strong light will affect the puppy's vision development.
Within 7 days after the puppy opens its eyes, the owner needs to pay close attention to the dog's eye hygiene to avoid causing infection-induced disease.
