| tears Our new four month old baby seems to have lots of tears that keep her face wet from the inside corners of her eyes to her mustache. Any thoughts or advise on this would be appreciated. Could it be her food? She has had this since we picked her up at twelve weeks and we have switched her food several times trying to find something she will eat. |

| Zhoie has always been that way too. She eats TOTW fish flavor and it's much better since I took her off chicken. Oh, and what really helped was when I started keeping the hair cut out of the very corners of her eyes.

| I agree with Tena, Bogie's face stays wet all the time unless I keep the hair trimmed away from the corners of his eyes.

| We trim eyes too. I also try to wash Mina's face every morning after I wash mine. She likes standing on the counter and getting her face washed like mom's. |

| Macy had a wet face all the time. We tried different kinds of food and bottled water. I also noticed during the day stray little hairs would fall into her eyes and she wouldn't blink. With a combination of Taste of the Wild (fish), bottled water and keeping her eyes trimmed she is much better. Don't know if one in particular worked but I am going to keep doing everything the same since it works.

| Thanks for the advise. I am a little nervous to trim around her eyes, she is such a little squirm worm. How do you guys do it, and how much do you take off? It is about time to shave the top of her little ears too. Yesterday we reached a milestone, she broke the three pound mark!!! |
