Standard Poodle Q&A

Does anyone have an answer as far as keeping the stains from around the eyes of a cavachon. This is not happening all the time . I was told what causes this. Any help would be appreciated.

Try "I-Clenz" it's fantastic.....Just google it and buy it online. They send internationally....


I found just wiping the tears every morning after his walk with a damp cloth made the stain disappear. After maybe a week, I noticed that only dry chunks appeared, I brushed them out with a dishedder brush/comb. I've tried a couple of products specially for that in the past and got no results.


My breeder told me to but a little bit of apple cider vinigar in his water


My breeder recommends "Angels Eyes". It's a powder you put in their food, check out the website to find out more. She says it really works.


I tried the powder, the Angel Eyes and put it in her food. It gave her diarrehea. I don't use it. Instead, I brought a liquid and with a q-ti, dip it in and wipe her eyes. Works great!


I've used the Angel Eyes for my Cavachon and he has NEVER had tear stains. I also clean the eye area 2xweek with a combination of 25% baby shampoo, 25%hydrgen peroxode, and the remaining 50% water. His eyes look great.


1 part milk of magnesia 1 part hydrogen peroxide make it into a paste using corn starch clean stain with water apply paste at night


Hi, I have a cavachon pup and had the staining problem when I first brought him home. I heard that iron in tap water is partly the reason for this. I have given him only filtered water since and staining is gone! Hope this helps.


I found not using tap water on lily's face works great. No stains


ANGEL EYES !!!!! IT IS A LITTLE PRICEY.....BUT IT REALLY REALLY WORKS....YOU WILL NOTICE A DIFFERENCE WITHIN 2-3 DAYS


I had the same trouble with my Lhasa. I tried Angel Eyes and it works great. You can get it online.


half and half mix of water and hydrogen peroxide on a damp cloth should work. the sooner you do it the better it will work.


Try Angel Eyes...a;powder that you add to breakfast meal once a day


I have two Cavachons and they are two years old. They are sisters from the same litter. One is white and has a little bit of brown and one i black and white. I tried "angle eyes" and other products to keep their eyes clean and free of "gunk". Finally someone told me to give them distilled water only. It's super cheap at Walmart and they do drink other water once in a while if it's needed. (Like if we are out somewhere)...they never have "gunky" eyes now that they drink distilled water.

Give your puppy only distilled or filtered water and problem solved. They are still teary and need their eyes cleaned regularly but no staining will occur.


I have a 4


Once i started giving our cavachon a cosequin tablet mixed in his food evety day, the staining stopped.


The stains around their eyes and even on their paws is their way of having their allergies. my daughter is a vet tech and she recommends to give them start with one allergie pill....I have Rite Aid brand, allergy relief, chlorpheniramine maleate 4 mg. It never gets completely rid of it but is does make it less and lighter.


Hello there Place a small amount in fact a smear of vaseline in the corner fir where the eyes run it helps and is easy to clean the dogs eyes from sleep Lorraine sherwood


Most definitely the water they drink use bottled water only this will vastly reduce problem


I found my two cavachons were fine after I put them on a grain-free diet. I understand that eye and beard discoloration is an allergic reaction to the food. It has been trial and error to find the culprit. They are litter mates - one still has a tad of beard dis coloring so will try distilled water.

Angel eyes works like a charm! It is pricey, but I have found that you don't need to use as much as the label suggests. I gave her the full dose for the first two weeks. Then I cut her down to a half dose for about a week and now I give her a half dose every two or three days. I've been doing this for three years now with great success.

My vet warned us not to use Angel Eyes- it's always risky to feed dog chemicals. When we took our dog off dry food, and switched to a grain free, raw food diet, the staining stopped and he was a lot happier, too!


I only give my cavachon purified water to drink and he has no staining.


According to my vet, Angel Eyes is poison and should not be given to your dog. My dogs were badly stained around their eyes and mouth. I switched to a raw food diet, eliminated all grain, and switched to purified drinking water. The combination worked like a charm- no staining at all. I'm sure if you tried any one of these options, the staining would at least improve


I give mine water from the brita pitcher always from day one. She has never had stained eyes. Its the bad stuff in faucet water that makes their eyes like that. Imagine what it's doing to the inside off their bodies.


My cavachon would get a reddish stain from his eyes tearing. It was quite prominent. I may have read it somewhere, I don't recall, but I started to give him only bottled spring water and after two or three days the reddish stains got lighter and lighter until they totally disappeared. I really was pleased! Now I only have to clean around his eyes to remove any dirt from him being outside. His eyes stay cleaner in the winter because although we go for walks he's not out as much as in the summer. Give it a try, it certainly can't hurt. Good luck!t


The best advice is wait for your Cavachon to become ill and require an antibiotic. Your dog will become healthy again and without you even realizing it the staining will disappear.


I have been giving my Cavachon puppy (4mos. old) bottled water only. She has no eye staining at all.
