What should I do if my Labrador's tear stains are severe? Wipe the Labrador's eyes with a wet soft cloth every day and use eye drops to reduce inflammation. If the tear stains are severe, seek medical attention in time. Ear canal infection can cause tear stains, so you should pay attention to the labrador's eyes. Clean the Labrador's ears; getting angry can also cause tear stains. Keep the diet light and let the Labrador drink more water.

1. Clean your eyes regularly

You can cut off the contaminated hair on the Labrador’s face and use chloramphenicol eye drops to reduce inflammation once a day. When observing the decrease in secretions and tears around the Labrador's eyes, you can stop using chloramphenicol eye drops (which often have side effects) and switch to milder nursing eye drops two to three times a week. At the same time, don’t forget to continue to cut the hair that has grown out, and clean the secretions from the corners of the dog’s eyes every day. It is best to scrub with a wet towel with warm water. After washing, use a dry paper towel to absorb the moisture on the fur, and blow dry when you have time. After a month of persistence, the polluted and discolored fur was sheared off, and the newly grown fur no longer turned yellow and red after care, and the tear stains were gone.

Of course, if the tear stains are very serious or even the eyes are inflamed, you must take your Labrador to see a doctor in time. Do not delay, so as not to delay the condition.

2. Clean the ears

Some people may ask, why do Labradors need to clean their ears if they have tear stains? But in fact, the relationship is very close. Clogged ears produce ear mites, which cause tear stains. This is the most common cause of tear stains in dogs. . When the ear canal is infected by bacteria, viruses, molds, parasites, or the ears are swollen, painful, or itchy, it will cause the dog to frequently scratch its ears with its hind feet.

3. Drink more water

If your Labrador has tear stains, you should let the dog drink more water. If the dog is too angry and drinks too little water, the salt in the body cannot be discharged in time and tear stains will easily occur. If the dog does not like to drink water, the owner can try to change the drinking utensils or drinking methods so that the dog can drink more water unknowingly while playing. Over time, the dog will get used to drinking water and will drink from the bowl on its own.
