I hear excuses!

But they are lazy!




And I am, too.

you can kiiinda see it here. it’s worse now. if he wasn’t all the way upstairs i’d take a new pic.

Thank you! And that’s not a weird question at all

Honestly I don’t do anything special, it just naturally stays that way.

That said, I have had a dog who’s nose cracked too and paws and I used that same ointment or maybe it was the paw one (honestly I think it’s the same stuff). Is it possible to maybe give him a bone or go walk or something to distract him for like 5-10 minutes or however long it takes to soak in? That might help.

That sounds interesting!

a generous halping of PB inside cooked hamburger. They have to work through it and get distracted. Not PB with xylitol in it thoguh.

Have you tried rubbing Crisco or hamburger juice on it? I know that those two things always help my hands when they are dried and cracking in the winter. Weird, but it works.

My girl doesn't have cracked pads or nose. I rubb and touch hers a lot though. Probably just coincidence, but figured id.give my experience

 

[JacinLarkwell]

Yeah, even I gotta agree on that

 

[Kay-T-Hammer]

Haha I mean, when you make homemade meatballs or burgers, the grease-slime that sticks to your hands. If you rub it in before washing it off, your skin feels hydrated and moisturized for a few days.

as gross as that all sounds, i think he’d lick either of them off even faster than the snout saver

his paws look great. we’ve just always struggled keeping his nose looking healthy. which sucks because he’s a really good looking dope of a dog.

You don't wear gloves?
