Yes Steve that's the 1st thing I do in the morning I mean before changing her season panties and handwashing them! But it does help every few days to clean it with boiling water with a bit of salt unce it's cooled green tea is good as well but stains like hell .

Lady used to get them ..
but since adding a small handfull of goji-berries to her meals ..
she no longer gets weepy-eyes at all
~~~~~~~
google 'goji berry health benefits' ..
they were once used as an eye medicine
a.f.a.i.k. they're fine for dogs

" Most eye drops are simply a saline solution, which is a small amount of salt dissolved in water. This is a great reproduction of human tears, and dog tears are composed of nearly the same elements. "
