All dogs owners like their dogs to look their best, but for showdogs it can mean the difference between winning and losing.

Unsightly tear stains show up on white fur particularly and can be rather offputting to look at.

Vets cite several plausible explanations for over-tearfulness in dogs.

It may be as a reaction to a minor bacterial infection in the tearduct or eye area. When these set in it's very common for Red Yeast infections to follow which give your dog those brown stains round his eyes.

Other explanations include blocked tear ducts, ear infections, genetics, allergies, a high mineral content in the water, diet and fleas.

Changing your dog's diet may solve the issue if food is the culprit. A water test can be done just by substituting normal water for filtered water and seeing whether there is an effect.

Obviously sometimes it's not a big enough deal to warrant thorough investigation, and all you need is something just to do a quick wash and brush up.

If you are the owner of a white dog you will find this familiar territory.

You can't just use soap and water on your pet's face. Firstly some soaps may cause an allergic reaction or get in the eyes, and also you need to be within reach of a faucet to rinse off the face.

Fine if you are at home, but more of a challenge if you are on a camping trip.

ClearQuest have created Eyewipes, which are suitable for cats and dogs. They are designed for use on the outer eyelids and eye area.

They are a fantastic invention for clearing up debris from round the eye area.

There are so many good reasons to use EyeWipes, and not just cosmetic ones; keeping that area clean will reduce the chance of an infection in the eye and also they can be useful when out and about.

No rinsing required.

Be very careful to not touch your pets eyeball with the wipe as this may irritate.
