??? how come u put vaseline gel?

i dunno if dat way is a correct way... but so far til now, i onli use d facial cotton n normal water... wipe everyday... dat's all... if u dun wan use normal water... den i think there is wat they call saline water... not sure if thats d same as ur contact lense solution....

den mikey onli drink those drinking water... not from tap 1... heard can help to reduce tear stain... otherwise... boiled water also can...

Did you use the hair dryer to dry the bulu bulu after wiping?

R u sure u wan to use powder? coz it can irritates d eyes and make them tears more..Also the vaseline...You can wipe the eye wax wit saline, bt after that try to keep that area as dry as possible to prevent bacteria growth..

haha.. after wipe no need use dryer lor... hehe.. cos human hair if too often use dryer also will dry mah...

i js use normal towel to wipe d excess water... cos i always wash mikey 'bird' n butt after he pee n poo...

dry wif towel will do...

Grace : if me... i only use saline water n cotten to wipe it clean and I do dried it with hair dryer but not everytime cuz it will scared her as she dun like the sound most of the time using towel. cuz as cherlyn said if we left it wet it will made the bacteria growth... I gave autumn own drinking water... not from tap but our drinking water

For now this is we can do to maintain the stain... but I guess no need to worry much right? cuz I heard when puppy some will have stain n some will definetely dun have stain at all.. the stain will slowly became lesser after all the teeth came out. Like my girl now, she's still changing teeth so her stain looks worse than before

How is this product "Health n Shine"? Does it help?? Anyone use it on ur furkids b4??? Kindly advise. Tq..

Health & Shine is indeed a nice product to reduce n clean all the eyes stain.. but as I said earlier now Spring still in her puppy hood time.. so the stain that she got now will became lesser when she reach the right time

I once thought wan to buy H&S for my girl as suddenly her stain became worsen than before. But I've been told that autumn is still changing her teeth now.. so even though I feed her H&S it wont work 100% because she's still changing teeth so I made a opt to wait till her teeth all change then see if she still have stain or not =]

These are some pic of my furkids before and after HnS...

It reli helps bt provided there's no other causes of the stain tat remain...eg,earmites, tear duct blocked etc..

I think most of the dogs dun like us to blow dry their face as they feel uncomfortable with the air entering their nose,eyes i guess..

I agree wit cutevb19 tat frequent blow drying will dry up their hair..moreover, their hair is much much more fragile than our hair..

Ur furkids look great.

Thank you...I would admit that when they hav heavy tearstain,it was an unpleasent sight..Faustina had HnS when she's a pup and it actually comes back when she got cutting teeth..then i gav her again and d tearstain gone..

Charlie got sensitive skin..anything can irritates his skin..recently,he got his tears flowing non stop and make the tearstain come back..now,he's new hair on the mouthpart is white..

Oh ya...crying also will sometimes cause tearstain...good luck ya..

Spring baby ate a lot this morning, she took ard 25g to 30g. I mixed a small portion of her left over wif 20g of fresh meat n mix blend. I figure out tat she likes raw a lot so i mk her 90% of rmb n 10% mix blend......she loves it n finished it all except one two piece of tiny soft bones. stil i excluded d apple cider vinegar! Hopefully she wil keep it up 4 gd. She took her meal @ ard 7:45am but til now stil hv no sign of poo yet leh....she did her b'ness since yesterday morning....is it normal? Tis morning til now she has pee twice oledi one on designated potty zone n one @ d area tat i hv 2 clean up

Cherlyn : since when Faustina start HnS? I'm planing to start now... as u can see last sat.. autumn's tear getting worse right??

Robey : haha... good to know that she finally eat ^^ after eating.. digestion time suppose to be around 4-5 hours? but she still pup so supervise her more =] sometimes they can miss the pad when they can't tahan the pee so once u saw she want to pee quickly put her on the pad n praise her after she pee after few time she know that if pee on the pad will get praises from u all

Tats wat i tot...but d thing is she last did her b'ness @ yesterday morning b4 her meal. Which means til now she has taken 3 meals but stil no poo yet!!

I gave her when she's bout 8mths old..that's where she hav worst tearstain due to the cutting teeth..

Robey...dun worry bout the less poo or less frequent poo...it's normal coz you're feeding barf..they absorb the food better compared to kibbles..if u feed kibbles,you can expect more poops and sometimes even twice a day...

My Charlie n Fausti oredi get used to barf and the food intake quantity is more consistant..i mean,both of them will eat around 300gm a day or 5% of their body weight....mayb too much,bt they sustain their weight wit 5% so i continue with it...even wit tat amount, they dun poo everyday..sometimes 2 days once...normal wan..

dis is my Mikey aka 'Chubaka' from StarWar ( a fren of mine call him dat... hahhahhaa)

Tq so much 4 uploading d pic. She looks great isn't she? I myself oso hvnt tk pic wif her yet leh....hv 2 tk some liao la.

Wow...ur Mikey looks very macho leh..

puppy tend to pee more often and if her pee is yellowish means not enuf water... I mean she din really drink water
