| what causes runny eyes? My seven year old yorkie, Henrie, has developed runny eyes in the past year. Is it food or does anyone know? Thanks! |

Furbutts = LOVE Donating Member Moderator | I fully believe the first thing to look at is food, then seasonal/environmental. But, also ask yourself - did they start when you changed his shampoo, laundry detergent (as in, for his bed), stuff you use on the carpet - anything like that. What are you feeding him? And WELCOME!!!!!!!

| runny eyes Thank you for welcoming us. Henrie has eaten adult eukenuba small bites her whole life (7 years.) She is groomed and I'll have to ask about the shampoo. Bed stuff is all the same, detergent all the same. Anymore suggestions? Thanks. |

Donating YT 30K Club Member | I recently switched to distilled water and it really helped with Pixie's runny eyes and staining. Welcome

| Welcome!! What about hair in the eyes, I know that creates runny eyes, or even maybe something in the eye, poked the eye, or some how scratched it?!! |

| Since they run around with their little faces inches from the ground, it can be caused by a number of things. Dust, pollen, or allergies from grass, weeds, dust and so on. If you have noticed, most people don't develop allergies till they are older. Same could be true of your baby. Try washing Henri's eyes out with water each time after a walk and at night before bed. |
