Dry Nose
« on: December 20, 2014, 08:08:07 AM »
I have noticed over the last couple of weeks Jazz's nose seems to be getting dry.  That lovely wet, glossy Cocker nose has gone.  He is 9 now and I realise it may be a sign of his age.  Does anyone know of a product that is safe to use, bearing in mind he will obviously be licking his nose, that I could apply which might help.  Thanks a lot.

Thanks Gemma.  The Dogs Trust snout balm is not available anywhere at the moment.  I have ordered a similar product, with good reviews, on Amazon.  Use yours sparingly.

Vaseline with Aloe Vera  tons from the chemist work beautifully too.   Even Chapstick is  fine.
