Hi, my Bichon Frise puppy has recently started to get really bad tear staining. The hair around her eyes is trimmed and i have tried Diamond Eyes, but doesnt make much difference It is spoiling her pretty little face, any suggestions?

i would take her to the vets she might well have blocked tear ducts and they need draining properly, she will start to become very uncomfortable and sore soon so prob need to do sooner rather than later
