Q: What causes excessive tearing
and staining:
A: Staining can be caused by a variety
of things:
- Clogged or Shallow Tear Ducts:
Studies indicate that 20-25% of small dogs and cats are born with
closed of shallow tear ducts. Tears overflow because there the eyelid
space is not deep enough to contain them.
- Excessive Tearing:
When the face hair is wet from excessive tearing, it becomes a breeding
ground for bacteria and yeast infections (AKA: Red Yeast, which
causes deep reddish-brown stains); Low grade bacteria infections
may also cause excessive tearing.
- Cutting Teeth:
Cutting teeth may cause changes in the head & mouth structure
of your pet, placing pressure on the tear ducts.
- Irritation & Allergies:
Some animals get hair or eyelashes into their eyes
causing irritation. Many breeds are susceptible to allergies.
Shampoos and other chemicals can also irritate their eyesSome foods
cause allergic reactions; animals may also build an allergic reaction
over time to a type of food.
- Water: Water
with high mineral levels causes staining
- Food & Treats:
Diet can play a significant role in tearing. Many commercial
foods contain additives, preservatives and food coloring. This could
lead to staining.
- Fleas: Fleas
survive in moisture, which they get from the eye or moth area. This
could cause irritation and in addition red stains left behind may
be from flea feces. These are just a few reasons. There
are MANY more!!
