A well-groomed, healthy, and happy dog is a joy for the owner. But it isn't easy to rejoice when tears appear on the pet's face. And your experiences are not groundless: "weepy" eyes signal a problem. Let's understand the causes and methods of treatment of lacrimal ducts.

Top 6 causes that can cause tearing of the eyes:

1. Food allergy. Maltipoos often have allergies to food that contains chicken. Transfer the dog to a grain-free feed based on beef, lamb, or fish.

2. Chaotic feeding. Frequent changes of food, delicacies from different manufacturers, food from the table, sweets - all this is harmful to the dog's health. Any new product can cause tearing and allergies, so avoid experiments.

Feed your Maltipoo only with tested food of one brand. When you want to pamper your pet with treats, first give a small piece and watch the reaction. If teary eyes do not occur, the dog feels good - excellent. This product is suitable for your beauty.

3. Unsuitable utensils. To solve it: choose bowls for dogs from stainless steel.
4. Poor quality water. It is better to give the dog mineral water without gas.
5. Parasites. It is impossible to protect against them, so it is essential to deworm your dog at least once every three months regularly.
6. Uncut hair around the eyes. Hairs can get into the eyes and irritate the mucous membranes, resulting in tear ducts. Regular hygienic grooming will eliminate this trouble forever.

The eyes also flow in the following cases:

• Tooth change.
• The eyes got an infection.
• Illness or disease in dogs.
• In girls before the heat period and during it.

It is better to consult a veterinarian and choose an individual solution in such a situation.
