| Still have eye boogers after switching to NV raw? I switch between NV raw and primal raw, i can tell my dog's coat is more shiny than before and he poop from 3-4 times per day to only once a day. But the problem is the eye boogers, its still here every day. Whats the problem? He doesnt have any allergy. We feed him chicken,beef,vension,lamb.... |

| It could be something you have to deal with. Both of my boys have small eye boogies daily and I wipe them out every morning. My boys have clear boogies and my vet assured me not to worry, very normal for yorkies. Snickers once had dark red, staining boogies and that changed after I switched his diet. Reesie also came to me with some light reddish boogies and I switched his diet and they turned clear. I feed Bravo! raw. Good luck- Viv ps. Some say adding Apple Cider Vinegar to water (few drops) helps with this problem. Also, if your pup's water/food dish are not stainless steal, try that and you may see change.

Donating YT 500 Club Member | I really think Gerber Baby Water helps. I have been using it for almost a year now. Taycie is tear stain free. There is also a thread about Gerber Water and many others are also getting the same results! Good Luck!

| We clean Corky's eyes daily when we brush him. I just told myself we just have to deal with it. |

| Don't rule out a form of "detox". When I switched to PMR, my pet had high amounts of eye discharge for about a month and it then just stopped completely and never returned.

| it could just take awhile for them to completely go away but then again they may not. like others have said, it may just have to be something that you have to deal with. i feed sasha primal raw and she still gets eye boogers that i have to clean daily. |

| Could be environmental allergies as well.
