| ROTFL! True, but Max is too much of a snob to go near the toilet and Teddy, not sure why he won't go near it.

I ♥ Joey & Ralphie! Donating Member | Joey's definitely interested in it, he knows that's where I throw all his golden nuggets, but he’s too short to do anything about it.

| i think eye discharge/ buggers , what ever you want to call it is something yorkies are prone to, don't think there is one thing that causes it specifically. glad to read about how to get rid of them, i will try the flea comb, any other ideas??? big issue for my ollie & i know i should clean his eyes daily, but i don't, not because i am lazy, but because he hates it. any other ideas. warm water dosen't seem to be enough if you let it go. any ideas would be great thanks!! |

| Our malti-poo had this problem about a year ago, and we talked to the vet about it. He suggested a product called "Angel Eyes", which you can buy at petmsart. It is a powder that you mix into their food, that helps to clear up their nasal passage. 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! |

To get them used to it; I would do just a quick dampening, praise him and let him go play with a toy, pick him up 5 minutes later, do the same thing. Did it this way for a couple of days, now he will sit and let me do it, I just talk him through it. I still try to be very quick, I can imagine its uncomfortable for him. After reading all the posts, I am definitely going to start him on the Gerber water tomorrow and keep everyone posted. It's great that this has worked for other yorkies and I hope it will work for Bubba Best of luck to you. | |

| Can you just make your own purified water by boiling tap water? |

I ♥ Joey & Ralphie! Donating Member | Lol if you have a still! You are boiling the water and the steam goes through tubing where it turns into water on the other end. The water you are boiling is left with all the minerals, while the water on the other end has no minerals because minerals can't turn into a gas like water can. So you're not boiling to get read of bacteria, you are trying to have water that is mineral free. Gerber sells some distilled water for baby’s bottles, and the gallon size is one dollar at Walmart.
