crusty nose?!

Boss' nose has been "crusty" for a while... he doesn't act like it bothers him but I would like to see if anyone has any remedies to help it look better.  NOTE:  We are on a grain, gluetin free diet so we will need to take that into consideration...  THANKS AGAIN!!!  PS -  pics of my pup will be posted on the general forum soon... i might be bias but he's only the cutest dog ever! :)

2nd vote

for bagbalm.  Just rub it in really well every day. They will lick it but it won't hurt them :)

be prepared

for some sulking and stink eye the first time you put it on. :)  There are lots of tongue nose slaps in our when it's applied.  I think he's trying to beat it off his nose, but really he's just helping push it in. :)

Aquaphor is my favorite, Bag Balm, Vaseline, Vit E Oil

all work.  Rub in well, they will lick, lick, lick and after 2 or 3 days of application the nose with be pretty and black again.  You will get some crusties off, but don't try picking those off until you have applicated a couple of applications of whatever you decide to use. Grease up morning and night.
