Instructions
Wipe under the dog's eyes with a cotton ball moistened with warm water. Remove any deposits that have built-up.
Check for any long hairs near the eyes. Trim these very carefully to prevent them from irritating the eyes, which leads to watery eyes and more rust stains.
Measure equal parts of boric acid powder and baby powder into a jar and stir in milk of magnesia until it makes a smooth paste. Rub this gently onto the rust stains, beginning near the corner of the eye and working outwards and downwards.
Allow the paste to dry. Leave it on for 15 minutes or longer for best results. Brush the paste off with a soft toothbrush.
Repeat the process daily until the rust stains are gone.
