For Fatboy's folds I use a medicated shampoo that we received from the vet's office but I can't use this to clean the crease underneath the eye. That area tends to get gunky and has tear stains but the medicated shampoo will burn his eyes. I want to wash it for him so it won't get irritated. Anything else I can use?

my archie was quite fussy
my archie was quite fussy w/anything touching his creases/wrinkles...
but what i could manage to clean + the occasion gunk around the
eyes...baby wipes...anything mild/gentle for babies...
smoochies the scrunchy faces
eye cleaning pads....
I give my babies a daily head to toe wipe down and my everyday pads are by Drs Foster & Smith, I use their variety pack of Eye Clens Pads, Ear Clens Pads and Dental Clens Pads but once each week I use "Mal-A-Ket" wipes by DermaPet they are antifungal wipes to clean between skin folds to prevent fungus and bacteria from building up ... I just recently found (but have not tried yet) an all over wipe called "Malacetic" Wet Wipe Dry Bath by DermaPet it can be used for skin folds, tail pockets, between toes etc it's an all over pet wipe, once my order gets here I can let you know how they work.

Contact Solution
We used contact solution on a cotton ball and that seemed to work just fine. We had tried other wipes but they just seemed to irritate them more. We also used baby wipes (fragerance free and alcohol free) for other wrinkles.

DIaper wipes w/out any scent or chemicals, followed by
drying with a paper towel. Sometimes I dab a little cornstarch in to absorb moisture, and some people use Vaseline
as a moisture barrier. Truth is, it is VERY hard to get ANYthing in their wrinkles since they both freak out and move so
much! One of Sophie's eyes was way too watery for a while, so we'd just dry it several times a day w/ paper towel.

Unscented baby wipes
Chef D doesn't mind getting his face cleaned. Actually he gets real excited when he sees the baby wipe box.

This is embarrasing for my Sgtmajor - so don't tell
I use vagisil wipes - It seems to keep the bacteria groth down so he smells better between baths.
