We brushed her teeth - not easy  - and I washed her face with Aveeno Baby shampoo and combed it thru really good with a flea comb and then gently dried with warm/low air. The stench is about 80% better.
Could the tears be more pronounced because of teething?
I may have to have her face trimmed and then if it goes away, I can grow it back out.
Let me just say, she is a wonderful little dog and we love her. She's a pistol to groom and wash, but she's a really good girl in every other way.
I had no idea there'd be this smell and it's so powerful & pervasive. Right now I'm washing all the bedding trying to get it out. |
sounds like the eye boogie stinky smell to me - i would get the
Tear Stain Remover | The Safe and Effective solution for Cats and Dogs by Eye Envy and clean eyes each morning it will help
and yes tear staining is more when teething
you can use a baby absorbing bib and get the bottles u use to dye your own hair from sally's beauty supply and wash area with spa lavish then use the bottle with water and bib and clean as that stuff smells good so between those two things it should help
I have a maltese and i use both of those products on her as she gets pretty stinky from the eye boogies but my two yorks do not
also use spring bottled water for her not tap
