When I got Sophie, her eyes were running, but she'd just had a tooth cleaning and had been drugged.  They went away and she had clear eyes for two weeks.

Then, almost instantly when we took her to the vet for her wellness exam two weeks later, her eyes began watering. And, if you all remember, the vet was at the recieving area of the shelter we'd rescued her at and we thought it was a sign of stress.  She was freaking out. When they didn't go away for the first few days I thought nothing of it because I though it must be stress...

But now it's been a week and a half and her eyes are still doing it.  She had a bath, but it didn't get rid of the rusty-colored smears under her eyes.  It's sad because it's completely changing her face so she rarely looks happy (since they're kind of tear streak looking). I've been trying to figure this out.  If it wasn't for the fact she didn't have it those first two weeks, I'd just assume it's because she's a little white dog and they get those sometimes (lots of chihuahuas and poodles, etc, have them).

But then I thought,ratties are prone to allergies...

Is this an allergy symptom?

check out www.angelseyesonline.com it is a supplement you put in the food that takes care of eye stains  it is the only thing I have found that works.  We just started selling it at work and it has made massive improvements in the dogs that are taking it.

with some dogs it comes and goes, with what I am not sure some of my client will only give bottled water because of the treatment tap water gets.  Well water seems to be really hard on them.
