So I'm hoping it's just her hair irritating her eye for the time being and nothing worse.
I do everything to keep the hair combed down, but sometimes there's a chunk or two that is unruly!! Just wondering though... besides Gerber baby water what other brands do you use for water? I was told Aquafina by another member so I am going to try that if the boogies don't stop after the next month or so of her hair getting longer/out of the way. | Any type of Bottled water works. I just bought Gerber's one time and I used it for awhile. I ended up trying different brands but when I put her on her new food, I happened to buy Gerber water that time. Since her face is tear free, now I am hesitant to switch a good thing. She looks so great right now.
I did notice the biggest improvement with the food, for Taycie. I am not sure changing her water "made" that much difference. But, if its working then we will use it! Her tear staining was a result of food allergies.
Every dog is different. If the hair is irritating her eyes, It probably does have alot to do with the boogies.I would try something to help it while growing out. You can try Pet silk top knot gel and Vaseline that was mention previously and see if that helps. |
