Default Tear Staining?

Zoey has never really had a problem with staining, Sebastian did though. But ever since Zoey went through a 'raw' detox she has had tear staining on her face mostly the left eye, but a little on the other eye. It is all down underneath her eye almost to the bottom of her lip. She has been checked by the vet for any problems with her eye and he didn't see any. Is there anything I can do/give her to help clear it up? I miss her pretty white face She does drink distilled water, always has, drinks from ceramic dishes and eats raw only diet. Are there any wipes or anything I can use? I do wipe her face with baby wipes a few times a day.

Other than what you are doing, so far I haven't heard of anything other than products that have questionable things in them, like Angel eyes. It has a low dose antibiotic in it which most don't prefer to use. I think someone did a review on it here and didn't get that great of results. Unfortunately I think wiping is about the only safe way to go other than diet, and sounds like hers is perfect. Maybe she has allergies to something she is eating. They can test dogs now for allergies. Maybe try that and see if it’s something she is eating.

I wanted to say Angel Eye is the best. I didnt even clean the one dog i have and with in weeks...i gave it mixed with wet food daily than i went every other day. i also heard apple cider in their drinking water can help too.

good luck

Thanks, I know she is allergic to chicken/beef/grains in kibble but has done remarkably well on raw her other allergy symptoms have cleared up, so I'm thinking it's just residual from detox. I started adding Bragg's ACV to her water a little over a week ago, so maybe that will help. I'm not sure I want to add more antibiotics to her system, she has been on them so much for chronic throat infections & bronchitis, I'm trying to keep all her drugs to an absolute minimum.
