Hi there! Welcome! For tear stains, the first thing is to get on a grain free diet. What are you feeding your baby?

Nutro max puppy. The previous owner fed him some cheap Purina dog food....so that could be why he has those stains.

I would start by giving him a grain free diet, like avoderm or Fromm, and get some mal-a-ket wipes. Wipe face and wrinkles daily. Unfortunately nutro-max is not great either, but not as bad as purina...:eek:

We have lots of discussions on dog food and wrinkle care on here, snoop around a bit and you will be shocked at what you will learn :)

Glad you joined us, your bully is adore a bull!!!

Hellooo Welcome debstarr && Crystalandjustin!! :)

I would deff try changing your bullys food like desertsky had suggested. I know that Royal Canin is another good one or we use Blue Buffalo for our two bullys :)

we use avoderm and still have the stains :eek: I think in some dogs, it's just going to be there no matter what you do. Honestly, I think we've done it all :( But oh well..we still love him! and.. WELCOME..you will love it here and all the helpful people!!!!

I have noticed, unfortunately, that Louie is discomforted when I clean his wrinkles. Like I said before, I don't think his previous owners took very good care of him. His skin is red underneath the hair. Is there anything I should know? I don't want to hurt him!! I got him some special wipes especially for wrinkles I hope that helps!

Thanks for the advice Lisa! I appreciate it all! My husband grew up with bullys but doesnt have much advice or cant remember these important details.

Welcome. I have a seven month bully. We use angel eyes in his food. He was on purina puppy chow from 10 weeks till about when he was 6 months. He was having alot of skin issues so we changed him to royal cabin. His skin is back to normal and is doing great. We also give him filtered water and I heard that helps too. I wipe spikes face two or three times a day. I also use Vaseline on his tear stains to keep them dry. Good luck. And congrats on ur new bully u will find urself falling in love soon. ;) everyone on here is VERY helpful.

Welcome CrystalandJustin and debstarr this site is great! I dont really need to chime in I think you got all the help you need on the wrinkle care issue. ;) As for the cat I have none so have no help there either but I am sure someone here may be able to help you on that. Feel free to ask any questions here, everyone is very helpful!
