Bridget (Yorkie) and Greta (Biewer) are on Reduced Fat Wellness Core and we are also battling the "eye gunk" and staining. I was so hoping it wasn't the food, since I've heard good things about it - not sure where to go now. Is there anything other than the protein % that I should be watching for that could be contributing to this?
