Hi Vecheron and welcome to HLF !
I was away for fishing trip thus missing for a week.
erm erm ... this is a fishing forum not Westies forum wor .... lol ! joking joking ...
ZERO tear stains ... not really true for Scott.
My older boy Scott had this "one eye" tear stain problem many months ago ...
Took him to the vet but was given the usual answer ... blocked tear duct !
Vet said even if they flush and clear the tear duct ... it might just get block again and problem recurs.
I do not agreed ... ;p
Tried out many different brands of tear stain remover .. all did not work !
Finally ... after much research and reading ...
I bought "eye envy".
You have to use the liquid solution and powder formula together.
In less than 2 weeks ... Scott's tear stain not only disappeared, he never had tear stain problem since.
You can get eye envy kit which comes with the solution and powder from PLC.
A little on the expensive side ... but it works.
O yes ... do massage the tear duct area daily too ...
You can stop using eye envy once the tear stain is gone.
Just the usual daily hygiene routine of cleaning their eyes and remove any "bak sai" will keep the tear stain away ~
