a little blood in nose rope

[Corine Pesantes]

Thanks for asking Alpha1! it's still red but not looking worse.i put neosporin on it once (try to do twice) a day and wipe it out ocassionally. what a difficult space to try to cure something like that. My daughter (who is now 26. today as a matter of fact lol) as a baby had a similar spot, er, between her butt cheeks lol and our pediatrician tried a few things and then was like, "you know what? let's go back to the basics and try A&D" and sure enough that's what did it. so i'm still wondering if i should do that. it would protect the area and let it heal.

I also use A&D ointment on mine. I clean their face / folds first with wet paper towel. Then folds with either witch hazel or mal-e-ket wipes. Use the AD if she's merging looks a little red.

Even my vet asked me to screen shot the ointment and ingredients so that he can recommend it out as well.

Desitin would be my choice.

thanks guys. that's how our pediatrician was also, "I am definitely recommending this to my patients from now on!" haha it was funny. i'll try desitin if this doesnt work. i happened to have A&D on hand.

@megdav....I clean my bully's nose rope daily with peroxide on a cotton ball and follow up with a dry cotton ball. I try not to rub to hard as it tends to get irritated really easy. He has developed what looks like what your pup has now and after cleaning I too use A&D or Neosporin, takes a few days to start to heal. I would clean it at least twice a day. I also use acne cream when he develops pimples on his chin. Hope this helps.

hey thanks everyone. i wanted to give an update. dozer has 2 "pimples" now. ive been cleaning/wiping with a tissue or cotton ball and then putting A&D on it. doesnt seem to be doing much. You think Desitin is next? I plan to bring him to another vet for another "1st" visit because i wasnt too happy with the first vet. I'll see what he/she says too.

sorry it's blurry

A visit to the vet sounds right. It's suspicious that you've been treating one and another pops up…may need a prescription or test to see if it's bacterial. You can try Desitin while waiting for an appt. Hopefully he can get in before the holiday.

we saw the vet. i like this guy much better than the first one we went to. he suggested the malecetic (sp) cleaner for the nose and folds and between his paws. looking at his nose today, it looks a little better. from the desitin maybe? so i might try that for another day or two and see if it keeps improving. i guess inbetween his paws looked a little pink (in the bright lights, i didnt notice at home). i forget what he called it, but his eyes have a "defect" where the lower eyelid kind of sticks out. kind of comes to a triangle. i think he said that can cause more tears? Do any of you know the name. i'll try to look it up. He's 52.5lbs now and looks great the doc said

I have heard of this, but forget the name too. I don't think it is a big issue though... right?

[megdav]

no, thankfully no big issue

well looks like desitin wins this one, dozer's nose rope looks much better! YAY! (a lot of work to get it in there. i need someone to hold his head lol).

[TyTysmom]

Yeay, we use Desitin as well, love it!
