Have a silkie that has a problem off and on with mucus build up that completely closes what I would call her nasal passages. I usually clean it with Vaseline to soften it and clean it and also treat her with duramycin10 but you have to take her to the vet now for a prescription. It's a bacterial infection. She has had it twice and she is about a 1 1/2 years old. This time when I cleaned it there was a little blood. Is there a home remedy like an antibiotic and would you put something on her nose not blocking the opening? She doesn't have chest congestion. Would appreciate any suggestions.
