Stubborn stains around the eyes, mouth and paws are tricky to manage.
Lift discolouration gently and safely while caring for sensitive skin.
Why does stained fur occur?
Stained fur - whether it’s tear stains, beard stains, or paw stains - often appears as reddish-brown marks on lighter-coloured coats. These stains are usually caused by a pigment called porphyrin, which is found in saliva and tears. Dogs that drool or tear a lot are most prone, especially breeds like Poodles, Maltese, and Bulldogs.
While staining is mostly a cosmetic issue, it can sometimes signal underlying irritation or infection if not kept in check. Regular, gentle cleansing of stained areas is the best defence, keeping fur bright and healthy without causing additional irritation to sensitive areas like around the eyes or mouth.

The science behind our solution to stained fur
Staining is commonly caused by natural pigments in tears, saliva, or food, which build up over time - particularly around eyes, mouths, and paws. Fur Love’s Micellar Cleansing Spritz is formulated with micellar technology: tiny cleansing molecules that lift away dirt and residue without the need to rinse. Aloe vera and cucumber extract soothe and hydrate the skin, while coconut extract provides mild antimicrobial benefits to keep sensitive areas clean.
The Paw & Body Soak contains sodium bicarbonate and coconut derivatives that help break down debris and stains, especially useful for paw staining from outdoor exposure. Regular spot cleaning not only keeps the fur looking fresh but also prevents long-term discolouration and odour buildup.
This gentle, plant-based routine supports daily maintenance of stain-prone areas, ensuring your dog’s coat stays bright, healthy, and comfortable.
