After trying many things on the market, a friend recommended Cranimals Gold for tear stains. She told me she had a white boxer with major tear stain issues and said that somebody at a local pet store recommended it, and within a month her boxer's tear stains were gone! I was skeptical about this and put off trying it because Cranimals Gold is marketed as an antioxidant/general supplement rather than a tear stain cure.

But Bosco's tear stains were looking pretty bad so I bought this about a week and a half ago and have noticed a DRASTIC improvement already. His tear stains have lightened significantly! It's about $20 for a bag and it's a powder you put on top of food - about a teaspoon or two a day.

So happy I found this! Definitely worth trying!

The ingredients are all natural - mainly cranberry and seaweed meal. I believe it's a local Vancouver, BC company that makes it, so I don't think many stores carry it. I just bought it from Amazon.

I'll post before and after pics in a couple weeks when hopefully they're completely gone.

ingredients looks good and claimed to be organic. they also donate some of the profits to rescues and dog cancer research. if it's true, it's a good product to support :) in my opinion.

And just as i thought, it's not available here! :facepalm2: It's available in Holland but not in Germany! we're just neighbors! hmmm i should email them lol.

Hi this is great information, thanks for sharing. My male Dozer doesn't have any tear stains, but he also doesn't have any allergy issues. His sister Blossom has allergies to chicken, salmon, corn and grains, and we did 4 food switches before we found a food that she tolerates and doesn't cause allergy issues, like paw licking, red paws, pink face and chin, pink warm ears, and itchiness. We feed both our guys Fromm's Beef Frittata grain free and they're doing really well on it. Blossom has a little bit of tear stains, but not too bad, but I'll have to see if I can find Cranimals Gold here. Whereabouts are you located in Canada? I'm in Burlington Ontario.

HAHAHA! Touche! It's an all natural thing, it would be good to try out might save some $$ on Duoxo pads. :D IMHO I think it's all in the food you feed and all of these products are just a band aid instead of getting to the root of the issue. I would definitely use this product before I would EVER give my dog Angels Eye's that stuff is a joke.

Thank you for sharing this! Tate's tear stains and facial wrinkles are quite rusty and just yesterday at the Vet's, we got an rx for mupirocin ointment (antibacterial). She wants me to apply it on the folds every other day. I will check out this supplement also !

We're on the very same page! Very well said!:yes: That's why i treat Bifi's tear stains with just vinegar and water solution. not only is it economical but i also know i am not doing any damage to his health. Also the reason why, like you, i was very interested in the ingredients first.

I'm in Vancouver - Cranimals is a local company so there are quite a few pet shops selling it. But I didn't know that and just bought it online from amazon!

Bosco's on Fromm Pork and Peas and his tear stains were really bad - especially under the eye where the fur is white. This was $20 well spent!
