If you have a white or light colored dog then you probably have had to deal with those yellowing stains that are around the eyes and streak down towards the dog's nose. They are made from the acid in the dog's tears. Some dogs will exhibit more staining than others due to eye problems. A dog that has eyes that are being constantly irritated will have more tears.
There are many dog products on the market that will remove or reduce the stains, but the best way to keep the staining under control is to remove the irritation of the eyes. Irritations can be caused by air borne particles, allergies and nutrition. Yes nutrition even plays an important part.
If you plan on asking your vet or a dog groomer for advice I would stick to the vet, since a dog groomer might only know how to remove the stains and not prevent them. It is like asking someone "what is best eye cream for dark circles" rather than finding out that the best treament is getting enough sleep. Your dog's vet can also isolate any underlying allergies that are constantly bothering your dog.
