Hi Cotons mom

Keeping the area that becomes wet with tears dry and clean can help to prevent tear stains. What can happen is that moisture from regular tearing can collect dirt and bacteria and cause what are usually rust colored stains. This is the same thing that causes a white dog’s feet or other area to stain from constant licking or chewing. Try wiping under the eyes with a damp cloth and then a dry cloth a couple of times a day. This will help to prevent moisture and dirt from causing stains under the eyes and keeping the area clean and dry will help with moisture stains anywhere else like feet and butts!
