It sounds like if it doesn't work in a few months, then something else is causing the problem. Some people have to continue to use the Angel Eyes at a lower dosage, after the excessive tearing stops. Of course, don't use foods that have any dyes in them, but it could be anything from bacteria in the food, to allergies. |
Thanks for your help. Yes, I have used angel eyes in the past and Im currently using it to help with thier tearing. It works, I just dont like to use it long term but I guess I can. Im using Merricks for now and as far as I know they dont have any dyes in their foods. Ive been using them for about 2ish months now and the tearing/staining just started about 2 weeks ago, that's why I think its the food because nothing else in their diet has changed and today I noticed while they were outside doing thier business both of them had red staining around thier poopers.. I would think was a huge indicator that its the food
, I have never seen that before. My toy poodle has had tearing in the past, but I related it to the corn in her food. I have sent out for samples for a few different food companies agian, in hopes that I can find something they will eat and that will help, but the list is getting limited as we have tried many, many foods.
The acv that I was using was only 2 teaspoons in a large water bowl,(not sure of the size) I wouldnt think that it was too strong, but I will can try again using less.
