I am just trying this now on Dolly. The tear stains come from a yeast infection that forms from the tears laying in the fur. I read that powdered buttermilk helps by changing the tears that are resistent to yeast infections. I give Dolly 1/8 tsp on top of her kibble twice a day. She was looking better and now the allergies are making her eyes water...but when dry, I think she looks a lot better. It is safer than using some of the products that actually have antibiotics in them...don't want her to be on any more antibiotics than necessary. Good luck!
