Question
Marie my 11 month shihtzu mixed has tear stains(eyes drain alot) as well as his front paws (the hair in between the paws  only) is reddish. His food consist of Canine Cavier Kibble Chicken & Pearl Millet Adult, 1tsp salmon oil daily/ 1 nuvet wafer daily, distilled water. I was thinking about order fish mox or even flora force please advise.

Answer
Hi Gloria, Yes, I remember you and your boy!  The food, NuVet and Salmon oil are wonderful -
See here for the  *Fish Zole that many Vets tend to use  short-term for severe tear stains.
