Our vet explained to us that their nasal passage way gets clogged (think of a stuffy nose and ears on us humans), and so their "snot" has only one way to go, through their eyes.

He gave us the active ingredient in Angel Eyes, called Tylan powder, to try out. We put 1/8 tsp into Tucker's food bowl, which is filled with about 1/2 cup of food. Within the month, his eye boogers were completely gone, and he hasn't had a problem since. Also, he face no longer stinks!
Yeah, I've heard others say they've had great results with Tylan Powder or Angel Eyes too. I've often wondered if some dogs had a low grade infection. Tylan Powder is a mild antibiotic, and it's I find it interesting that your vet said about clearing up the nasal passage. I guess it all depends what is causing the tearing, sometimes it's just an allergy to an ingredient in a food, and sometimes it’s something else, but I'm glad you found success with this. I know some Maltese owners use it all the time, but it's great you had success after only a month.
