    Hyperkeratosis treatment!

    I recently posted that Porkchop had tough little "hairs" coming out of his paws. One member said it was hyperkeratosis. I took the suggestion to contact my vet. She said I didn't have to come in for an exam if I wanted to try an inexpensive product first. (Which is great because I'm short on...

    Hyperkeratosis?

    Mabel's Little Nose

    Some of you know how I have struggled with the hyperkeratosis of Mabel's nose. We have tried everything--Snout Soother, Biobalm, coconut oil, and so many other products. Someone suggested Aquaphor, made by Eucerin, but I was using a combination of products because NOTHING seemed to work. Her...
