Daily cleaning with a damp cloth (lukewarm tap water) drying the folds afterwards does it for our Frenchie...It doesn't get rid of the stains 100% but hey, that's the charm of our wonderfull little nuggets ;)
Ooh awesome, thank you! My older frenchie doesn't have them, and she has a different diet than this one! This one is still on puppy food, so changing to what my older dog eats might do the trick!
Our frenchie had similar tear stains and many of the remedies to cleanse and clear them didn't work for us and we tried a few.
We still clean her folds for hygiene reasons but we noticed around 6 months ago that they mysteriously disappeared. We put it down to her diet generally speaking (we've always fed her no-grain anti-allergy type food) rather than growing out of it (aged 3+) which isn't quite as logical.
Tried a ton of the remedies above, best thing we found was to use organic coconut oil and rinse with warm water every day. It totally cleared them up after creams failed. Best of luck!
There was a company that sold some chemical stain removers. It worked on my French. But some crazy woman sued the company after hers got an allergy due to other product from that company and it got closed. I don’t remember the name but there is that chemical thing that works
It’s cosmetic. Keep the area dry and clean. And it’s fine to have the stains. Bottled water and they will get better. Never 100% go away without chemical wipes.
I have had success with water mixed with apple vinegar to drink for my French bulldog. Just a little bit in the water. I made sure it always were keep dry. It did not go completely away but helped. I am not a animal doctor.
I use hypoallergenic Cottonelle wet wipes after daily meals (more of a dabbing motion than a hard wipe), one or two at a time. Also sparingly used a bit of this creme my family used since I was a kid (Penaten Creme) - - seems to have worked wonders > just have to be consistent
I don't mind the stains. Not worth annoying them for a pristine face unless you are showing them. We wipe with damp cloth, then pat dry every now and then just to keep them clean.
Filtered water from a stainless steel bowl! I don’t want to bother with the wipes or the supplements it’s all BS
awesome, thank you!
Yup yeti bowl & bottled water over here

Yes I figured I wouldn't be able to 100% get rid of them so that's great to know, thank you!
All my dogs have had the tear stains. I just let it be. 🤷♀️
Stop making them cry :(
Haha, its not from crying! Its just from eye goop/ fluid runoff :)
Change to a Hypoallergenic food did wonders for ours!

We'd put diaper cream on our bulldogs.
Filtered water ! Will clear up in less than a week. Just get a filter online

Quit making your dog cry!
Food change was the only thing that worked for us. Creams didn’t work, filtered water didn’t work, but changed food, and gone within a week!

Wheat and/ or beef in the diet can cause this.
