Whopper
Hey just wanted to pop in and give a good recommendation for bag balm as being a great rope/nose ointment. I normally use a triple antibiotic ointment on whopper and that does work OK but I just recently re-discovered bag balm and that is actually a much better remedy for a dry, cracked nose and an irritated nose rope.

Whoppers nose was still cracked and dry with the use of the triple antibiotic ointment but within 2 days of using bag balm his nose is smooth and leathery. Actually resembles a normal dogs nose now. Under his rope also looks real good. So...anyone struggling with this I recommend giving bag balm a shot. Worked wonders for whopper. My mother is rejoicing in the afterlife right now, I know it. She swore by bag balm and used it for everything.

Oliver, Louieā€™s brother Iā€™m watching, got an IC a couple days ago and I sprayed it with colloidal silver and not sure if itā€™s coincidence of what but it didnā€™t get bigger and was practically gone the next day.

Great idea to use it as an antiseptic !!! It's got 8-hydroxyquinoline sulfate, which is antibacterial,antifungal,antiviral,antimalarial, and antitubercular. This is mixed into a base of lanolin and vaseline.It makes sense it'd be good for cuts,interdigital cysts, infected wrinkles,dry cracked paws,dry nose etc. Hydroxyquinoline is also used in a lower concentration in a vaginal jelly called Trimo-San to maintain proper pH and prevent odour in women using vaginal pessaries for prolapse.

Lanolin (wool fat) can be allergenic so stop using it if dog gets a rash.

Colloidal silver is good too. I sometimes do CS for IC in the day as I tend to put the bag balm at bedtime with his socks on. Sadly Duke licks/eat everything. Licks the BB. If I add it to the puncture on his chest cause of Madame nasty Nyala, Duke tries to lick it but canā€™t reach same as his folds...tries to lick his face off lol
