Bella is 5 mo. old, and has teared ever since we got her. The hair under her eyes and along her cheeks is almost always damp with tears (makes sort or a trail at an angle from her eye to the edge of her face). I wonder about the reason for the tearing (if there's anything wrong??), BUT I also don't like they way it makes her look! (I know that sounds vain, but she is SOOOOO adorable except for that.) Is this just a phase?? She is teething now, but I'm almost positive she was doing this before she started teething. I feed her Wellness Super 5 Puppy (before that she was on PurinaOne). One of the reasons I switched her to Wellness was because someone had said that when THEY switched their dog's tearing had all but stopped (in addition to wanting her to be on a better food of course). For awhile I thought maybe this is normal, but I see sooooo many Yorkie pics on here that look like sweet, dry little faces. What am I doing wrong, or what could I do differently that may help? (Oh yeah, I asked one of my vets about it a long time ago, so he checked and said that she doesn't have the little hairs at the corners of her eyes that cause some dogs to tear, but he didn't say anything else about it. I'm going to my favorite vet tomorrow because I think she may have acid reflux, so I'll ask him too, but I wanted to check with my fellow YT'ers and see what you all say.....I just want everyone else to think she's as adorable as I do! I'm sure they probably already do, but I don't want wet tears to detract from her beauty!
