Maltese tearing & stains

The age old question of what I do to get my maltese's face white?
If you could come up with a product that would whiten a face it would
be almost as profitable as a "Eat whatever you want and lose weight diet pill".
Maltese maintenance and stain prevention is the key.
All puppies cutting teeth and just off of mom will have some staining.
While it is true that individual maltese will have different amounts of staining, mostly
some owners are better at keeping up the faces that others.
On adult dogs if there seems to be alot of face staining check your maltese's ears and teeth.
If there is an infection this can make your maltese's eyes tear more and cause additional staining.
Angel eyes and Eye envy are products that we have used with our maltese with good results.
We do not reccomend the practice of keeping maltese on daily antibiotics over an extended period
this could cause damage to the immune system.
There are no short cuts to good care and the rewards are easily seen in your healthy maltese's bright
white face!
