hi, was wondering about the watery eyes you mentioned.. did you meant tear stain at areas close to the eye duct? or purely, wet eyes? my dog recently had tears at his right eye. the vet said it's because of his stucked eye duct, and we were told to massage the eye duct area gently everyday. i find that my dog had quite some cases of eye problems. once he kept blinking his right eye. and even used his paw to scratch... i was also given cream to apply to his eye daily - it didn't help. after a while, i noticed a tiny hair grown below his eye (really tiny) poking into his eye - i pulled it out, and it fixed the problem. the 2nd time was again, he blink his eye. this time the vet said it was due to the nature of goldens who love to sniff around, dig around, poke their heads around - which might end up poking their eye into bushes, twigs or etc - and cause eye irritation. Some eye drops were given, and it solved the problem too. don't know whether this'll help. just sharing some experience with my dog's eye problem too. regards, hunter
