The eye pads are very soothing and seem to calm her eye corners. Our vet said "yes, some breeds do that" and "if it's excessive, it's probably an allergy or irritant reaction." We do notice she's had a bit more this spring after being out in the yard, so may there is an allergy component. The main thing is to make sure it's not an eye infection especially if there has been a sudden increase. Then clean with as little irritation to the eyes as you can. https://www.amazon.com/Top-Performan...cleansing+pads https://www.amazon.com/s/ref=nb_sb_s...=3GGSNOSPK3LSR |
I just use what I was told by the vet, a wet paper towel and to rub the area gently and itll come loose. It works. The stains don't come off but she has dark brown fur so you really dont notice it easily.
They do look and feel like boogers... Rather gross to think about. Been calling them eye boogers, eye snots, eye gunk. Mostly eye boogers.
