| That sounds really quick for something to have accumulated right after a bath. Does she have hair actually poking in her eyes? If so try to smooth it down with some vaseline or hair gel so it isn't poking her eyes. Is it possible she has an eye infection? Is it off color or smell yucky? I have to clean the hair under my girls eyes daily but it doesn't come back that quickly to be able to notice it right after It was taken care of

| Besides my 3 Yorkies I have a white pommie. He gets gunk and stain under his eyes, and I use Angel Eyes from www.entirelypets.com It works wonders. This would only be an option if your puppy does not have an infection. |

| I had that problem too!! It is getting better now. One of the reason that Chloe had that teary eyes problem was because we had hard water at home. Do you use water softner? After we installed one, I did notice her "tears" are less than before....much less than before! Also, it might be her diet too? What do you feed her? I recently purchased Envy eye and it worked wonderful!!!! It applies outside....It is more safer than Angel's Eye (Just my personal opinion. I have no doubt that Angel's Eye works, but I just don't like the idea giving her "medication" for teary eye problem?) After careful consideration, I decided to give Envy Eye a shoot..and guess what? It works great!!! Here's a thread I asked about Angel's eye before and had some good advise from few YTers. http://www.yorkietalk.com/forums/sho...d.php?t=106793 |

I have no clue if i have hard or soft water i have heard of this before but if that has something to do with it ill start giving her bottled water lol... but the tear stains isn't whats bothering me right now.. and hers really aren't bad... but thanks for the info on the eye stain stuff im going to try that on my boxer he has the worse eye stains cuz he is white.. but with Mi its the crusty or slimmy eye boogies that im concered about... | |

| UpDate Ok it was the hairs by her eyes constantly pokeing her in the eye my poor little baby.. they told me to brush it down with a flea comb so thats what we been doing so now it is only nasty in the morning but after it gets brushed out and slicked down her eyes are so much better.. im just going to keep doing that every morning until i can get her trimed im scared to hurt her or give her some gap hair cut lol so until she gets all her shots ill just brush it out... But she is fine thank god.. Thanks for asking |
