Stains on a yellow dog

Does anyone have any secrets for getting the elbow stains off of yellow dogs? It almost looks like they have a bloody sore, as it is reddish in color. However, there is no sore, and it is just a discoloration of the hair around the elbow. We have shows coming up and need a quick fix, if there is one!!

Re: Stains on a yellow dog

Don't be too worried - it's pretty common. I would dust a little corn starch on it if it really bothered me. Regular application of Gold Bond powder might be a longer term help. The reddish stain is from red yeast which is often what causes eye stains too. The bane of owners of light colored dogs!
