Wonder Solution For White Fur Stains

All dogs owners like their dogs to look their best, but for showdogs it can mean the difference between winning and losing.

Unsightly tear stains show up on white fur particularly and can be rather offputting to look at.

So what are the reasons for streaming eyes in dogs?

It may be as a reaction to a minor bacterial infection in the tearduct or eye area. When these set in it's very common for Red Yeast infections to follow which give your dog those brown stains round his eyes.

Other explanations include blocked tear ducts, ear infections, genetics, allergies, a high mineral content in the water, diet and fleas.

Changing your dog's diet may solve the issue if food is the culprit. A water test can be done just by substituting normal water for filtered water and seeing whether there is an effect.

Sometimes your dog might just have teary eyes, and you need to sort it out just at that moment.

If you are the owner of a white dog you will find this familiar territory.

Don't just go for human soap to clean your dog's face. If you must use a detergent use a dog shampoo and don't get it into the eyes; you will still need to wash it off.

Fine if you are at home, but more of a challenge if you are on a camping trip.

That solution could come in the form of Eyewipes from ClearQuest, for cat and dog usage. Made for use around the eye area but of course not in the eye itself.

Safe, effective and convenient, they can be used to gently remove dried mucus, discharge and tear stains from the eye area.

The benefits are multifold - cleaning the area will remove any stains for shows, it will reduce the chance of eye infection or could be used to clear debris away from the eye, and it's a handy product to keep in your pack while hiking with your dog.

You don't even need water to rinse it off.

They come in packs of 100 and contain Deionized Water UV Sterilized, Cocamido Propyl Betaine, Propyl Paraben, Methyl Paraben and Boric Acid.

Be very careful to not touch your pets eyeball with the wipe as this may irritate.

Another option especially for show dogs is the Vitacoat Diamond Eye Tear Stain Remover.

For more than forty years it has been a mainstay of dog showmen all across North America for its gentle but effective cleaning power.

All you need to do is soak a swab and use it to gently rub the fur. A quick solution for you dog to look his best.
