This is why I love YT! - YorkieTalk.com Forums

Since I got Saphira I have noticed that her eyes run A LOT. Her face is constantly wet and she has big goop in the corners as well. Within the past couple of days I think it got worse so I looked up runny eyes on YT . Well I found out that they could be running more from teething. Saphira is 4 1/2 months old and started chewing on my hands a couple days ago so I think this could be part of the reason. Yesterday I got her some bully stixs to chew. I also found out that it could be the tap water and that apple cider vinegar can help as well. So...I gave her bottled water with the vinegar in it yesterday and already today there is no running at all . This site saved me a trip to the vet (even though she goes for her last shot this weekend and I had planned on asking then anyways)... 5 min of reading on here and problem solved ! And this is 1 reason why I LOVE YT .

This site is the most helpful Yorkie site I have found! There is a lot of good advice on here

Twinkie2Cute · 03-24-2010, 09:09 AM

I totally agree!

I wish there was something like this when my kids were born!

I found YT after my 13 year old Chipper had crossed the rainbow bridge. I had a Yorkie for 13 years with no health problems until the last year of his life. I really thought I knew quite alot about Yorkies, boy was I wrong. Once I got Piper I really started looking into everything about Yorkies. This site has taught me so much and I learn something new almost every day. I never knew that this breed could have so many medical problems. Now I have so much knowledge that I have to keep myself from finding problems that really aren't there. I just love Piper so much and can't even imagine not having her in my life. I remember the pain of saying good bye to Chipper and I don't want to go through that again.
