Tear Stains

Tear Stains in bulldogs and French bulldogs

What is that?

Bulldog tearstains are due to a red blood cell (RBC) by-product called “porphyrin" which is excreted in tears and saliva and activated when exposed to light. Also, tear overproduction or drainage issues will cause excessive tearing.

Symptoms

Unsightly, wet, reddish, tear stains are discoloration of skin areas that are in direct contact with your bulldog tears and saliva. Common locations are the face and paws/legs.
