Anyone have a recommendation on a good nose balm for dogs? It's so dry it's bleeding occasionally. Using olive oil to soften it up for now.
@h8cloz It's going to sound weird but you might need to check with a Vet first on this tip. Bees wax. Like from the hive wax, that stuff does wonders for skin care AND nose balm.
@PaganMother Took him in last Monday with a bloody nose. We didn't know where it was coming from (up inside or from outside). It was bad. He goes in again in a few days for blood tests. I finally saw the bleeding start on his nose, not from inside.
@h8cloz Oof, yeah likely dry. Make sure he's getting enough water to drink, and a bit of bee wax should help sooth the pain and aid him in healing since it's antibacterial.
@PaganMother Yeah, he drinks water constantly, which is another worry. Doing blood work next week to see if there are any underlying issues. Possibly Cushing's disease? He's a 9 year old Shepherd mix, so lots of possibilities.
@h8cloz Could be, I hope he turns out to be alright, maybe just a bit dehydrated, sometimes dogs do get that way with their nose if they don't have enough water.
