Dry nose

Ozzies nose has become dry from routing in his kibble...

Vet nurse said to try Olive oil on it which i will do ..
My question is has anyone else tried anything else ???

I did remember seeing some sort of butter they do for the nose but i cant remember where i saw it ..lol

My little boston terrier also has this problem (it seems to have gotten worse as hes gotten older, I think its more of an issue with the brachycephalic breeds.)

Ive always used a little vaseline on it and it works a really well

Aloe vera gel is better than vaseline........as it is not petroleum based and is perfectly safe to ingest
