Coconut Oil

Virgin Coconut oil also seems to help the nose issue. It is antibacterial, antiviral and antifungal as well. My 13 year old boxer has a very dry nose and the coconut oil seems to help so long as the other dogs do not lick it off. Hope this helps. (He doesn't like the application process, I usually have to straddle him and make it happen, he is not willing, yet he does act as though he gets relief from the treatment) I also feed him a spoonful a couple of times a week for his coat, and all around health.

Hi All:
my little minature pincher has developed severe dry nose. I have given her salmon oil, coconut oil, olive oil some buter. I give these to her with her raw diet andsome digestive enzyme. Have applied coconut oil, she just licks it off. Does anyone have any experience with this problem? I will have to bring her to the vet soon but do not want her to take any sort of harmful medication or topical product.
Thanks in advance!

I would suggest only using virgin Coconut oil on his nose. My dog had a dry nose and the coconut oil worked great. The chapstick & Vaseline have too many chemicals that are toxic for a dog!

Just went to the vet for my dogs chapped nose. He said to put vaseline it. He said to put it on like you would chapstick several times a day.
