stains

Was talking to my sister back home. She has 3 miniature poodles. One black two white. She mentioned how one was really getting bad in tear stain. I recall seeing them stains at Christmas and was bad then. Any magic solution that really works or dead end out there for solution?

I am usually posting here my bulldog problems but today I am delighted to say we are having a real breakthrough. Raw feeding has settled a lot of issues, for example George was always quite phlegmy on kibble his tear stains were very brown also, since the change he has no more phlegm and the...

Hello All, My dog Red is almost three years old. When I first got him he had no eye tear stains and I kept him on the same food that my breeder used. At about one year old he started with the tear stains and the chewing of the paws started a couple months later. I have tried many different...

Ms Ellie has some little Tear Stain Marks, that I want to nip in the bud, I read among the boards a post, of someone using Contact Lens Solution to help with them, and good results, Has anyone else used this method??

I have switched foods since getting Dukie. I feed natural balance LID fish & sweet potato. Everything seems fine except Duke, my moms cavalier & my 2 rescue yorkies now have tear stains & a stained mouth. What should I switch them to to avoid this?

Hello all, Joey is 8 months old and lets me clean everywhere, ears, bottom, paws, but will NOT sit still to have her face cleaned and medicine applied to tear stains. She snaps at the towel and gets all crazy. Not sure why she does this. Either she thinks we're playing OR just hates towels...

In the last couple of days George's tear stains have become very bad. They are a brown colour and the fur seems to be clumping. I clean his eye wrinkles every day with some cooled boiled water as any eye cleaning product we tried seemed to make his folds red and angry looking so I thought the...

Ok so I did some searching... Lots of good posts. I have tried several different foods and nothing worked. SO I decided to start cooking for her, she gets meat and veggies for her meal and loves it. She looks great, her poop is good and it seemed to be helping with her tear stains.. But within...

I currently have Goob on Wellness Core Ocean. He was on Nature's Instinct Raw Boost Lamb and Venison for about six months but I took him off of it a little over a month ago. His ears were getting VERY dirty, very quickly. He started scratching at them so much that I thought he was developing a...

I know there are a lot of posts on this, but I just wanted to make sure I am doing things correctly. I do not bath my bullies face or ears when I give him a bath. Should I be? I check his face once a day and wipe it clean of food and make sure I dry him after he drinks when I can. Every 1-3...

Sup guys!!.. Bogey has been awesome since we've picked him up last week and he's adjusting well.. He came to us with a blocked tear duct and for the past few hours his eye has been getting pretty red.. More than usual... Only thing I can think of is we gave him some beef liver and green beef...

So I've noticed within the last few days murphys tear stains smell of vinegar. He gets wiped down twice a day. I wiped him this morning and when I got home he smelled again. We use witch hazel Malacetic wipes And tear stain wipes anyone had this?? I don't believe he has an infection The...

HI everyone I am new to this website but I am having some issues with my bully. He is just a year old and we have had tons of skin issues. We finally got his skin to clear up after lots of anitibiotics, antifungals, and switching his food. He is now on simply nourish sweet potato and salmon. He...

I, Melanie, am new owner, and Potpie is my 11-week-old black seal and white female EB. She's been with us for one week, and we simply love her madly. These are things I've noticed: She doesn't like to be hot. She loves her chewy toys. She farts astoundingly. As soon as her eyes close, the...

This summer my boys were attacked by countless number of insects. Voitto even more so, since he is the one that adventures in grass and all possible bushes. His forhead was like a battle field with bold patches and bumbs. I, in my infamous wisdom, sprayed it with serum that is brown....so his...

So when I got Murphy about a month ago the breeder had him on Costco-Kirkland adult chicken rice& veggie. So we kept him on it. We asked the vet about it and she said it wasn't an awful choice but those types of food aren't ran through the system of whether they have all the qualities in a...

For those that use this, where and how and how much do you apply? Just ears? Is it safe to use on tear stains that are not directly near the eye? Thx in advance.

I think Mr. Chubbs has fall allergies. He is almost two, so not sure as he has only lived through one fall so far and he isn't old enough to be allergy tested (nor do I wish to pay for allergy testing if I can avoid it). He was having skin issues on his face last fall too. But his face has been...

can someone give me some advice.. my rescue boy Rocky had the pretties face when i got him although he had a few issues with infections going on.. once i got him and got him all better his tear stains are horrible.. i want his pretty white face back... i thought maybe it was because he was on...

When both Tate and Finn had intestinal issues (diarrhea) recently I put both on a home cooked diet of steamed rice and either poached chicken breast or very lean ground beef. Their only snack was a bowl of chicken broth and occasionally, pumpkin and yogurt. Tate was on this regimen for about 2...

I recently posted about my rocky's tear stains thinking it had gotten worse because of the antibiotics he was taking for his tail pocket infection.. but now his tail has been amputated and hes on no medicine but tear stains are still there.. but what i have noticed also is along with the tail...

Bullie, Angus, and Gizmo. They're still as beautiful as ever. Being on PMR, I can't keep Bullie and Gizmo's muzzles white... they get "blood stains" however much I wipe.

Wally has been shedding a LOT the last couple of weeks… I'm really stumped on this one. He's on Fromm's Beef and I also ordered some Pork and Peas. His stools look good, ears are good, minor paw licking (which I think is just from him playing in the pool water… Lol). He DOES have tear stains...

While Wally was at the vets today I was discussing w/her his deep tear stains which I'm going to have to start taking care of more diligently now that he had his surgery. She told me that there is a study out of UT vet school that has confirmed using the probiotic Prostora has reduced tear...

I am looking for a new food for Monty. He was on Royal Canin Bulldog when we got him and has been on Victors Healthy weight. I am interested in a revolving menu, grain free. i know Fromms is the go to food on here but I can't quite afford that right now but still want to give him the best...

So I think we may actually take the hit, and go RAW with Tyson. We have gone through 3 flavors of Fromms, and 2 flavors of the Natures Variety Limited Ingredients - he's doing ok on the Natures Variety now, however he still has tear stains, he's still having some GI issues (he currently gets...

Hi all, I'm trying desperately to sort out my bulldog's tear stains. They aren't infected and I'm cleaning them with MalAcetic wipes and hydrogen peroxide as well as using cornstarch on them to keep them dry. They seem to look better in the evenings after the cleaning but by the morning they're...

Ace has always been great with any food. He will even eat lettuce! Ace escaped from home recently. I got him back (Prayers answered) about 6 days later. Of course, he was given some other food. He came back doing well. He ate fine for a couple of days. One day my wife decided to give him some...

So my wife takes Ace to the vet a couple of days ago. I told her to ask about his allergies. He still puts his face on the carpet and wipes his eyes, he licks his paws every now and then, and of course sneezes. He still has moisture on his tear stains area. It has decreased due to food change to...

Hi all, I adopted an 11 month old english bulldog named Ollie a few weeks ago. When I first met her her tear stains seemed to be under control. They have gotten progressively worse over the past few weeks. Here is what I am doing currently and any tips would be greatly appreciated! She is...

Hi Everyone, Hope all the Bullies are doing well. Recently Maximus has been developing bad tear stains. He was on Fromm Salmon , then I switch to Acana Duck and Barlett Pear and its not getting any better? Anybody had problems with this food? I cleaned them everyday. Usually in the mornings...

If my daughter was telling this story she'd say "mom is about to rage" I'm about to rage. The youngest son graduated from Air Force basic training last weekend. It was awesome and I'm so proud of him. The middle son is working close to home so he stays here during the week so he was here to take...

I've posted about this earlier and things seemingly haven't gotten better. We moved in September/October and Winston was eating the same food he is now, Fromm Pork and Peas. We didn't move far, couple of miles across town. Once we moved, his tear stains started developing. We've now for the past...

We got our first Bully baby Fiona in June 2014. She is now 10 months old and 53 pounds! She has been doing really good up until just recently. She has started having really bad tear stains for the first time and she is really congested. The vet said its seasonal allergies. We got our 2nd bully...

EBN, need your help, does anyone have any experience with this food? Vet said Tyson needs to lose weight. We tried to cut down his food, but he seems constantly hungry, and started eating random things. We've always had him on grain free, vet says this food is not grain free. But she stated it...

I have Maximus on Salmon Tunalis from Fromm. He loves it. But it is responsible for a very wet stains on Maximus ?

Hello everyone! It's been a while. Haven't been on the boards for such a long time. I have a question, my ACE is now 13 months. He's healthy, full of life, and loves to eat, lol. One thing though that I've been constantly battling since he was about 5 months old is his excessive shedding. Now...
