Excessive eye tearing Gidget's eyes tear up and she won't let me clean the dried up tears. She hates to have anything done around her face. I've had 2 suggestions: have her drink only distilled water (I have city water that's been treated) and change her dog food (she eats Royal Canin for Yorkies now). Any ideas or suggestions will be appreciated |
I wonder if it could be related to allergies. All of mine have some kind of drainage but all three have different types. They all let me clean them though. Maybe work on teaching her to let you clean them. |
Warm water on cotton usually is soothing to them. Have a treat handy and give her one every time you clean her eyes. Forget the food change thing...never works imo. I tried it with a couple of mine. I think some have more drainage than others. You also could end up with bigger problems if you change her food.....they are prone to GI issues with food changes. When something works, I hesitate to change Have you had the vet look at her eyes? |
If there is chronic excess tearing, then I really would have the vet take a good look bc there can be something going on here that you're not thinking of - something that could actually be quite painful. |

About 5years Afro Cali had very watery eyes and when she had her dental that year they flushed her tear ducts and that solved the problem. |
