Emma's lower lip is really dry cracked, just like ours would get. She's always had a white line there and but now it's actually split. :confused: Can't say I've ever seen a dog get a dry lip. Her lower teeth are pretty crooked (like she has a double row). We call her shark tooth. I'm wondering if it's related at all? She goes to the vet for a recheck on her teeth on the 9th. Just never seen a split lip on a dog before. Oh I'm keeping vaseline and snout soother on it right now.

Ouchie ... I've never come across this before so I am no help at all. I wonder if she split it chewing on something or playing rough with the boys???

I don't think so. She's had a white line for quite some time now and two marks on the inner lip that look like their teeth marks from her of course. Could be the nylas?
 
I added two more pics. You can see the two cracks on the inner lip, has to be from her teeth I'm thinking?
 
BabyGirl has split her lower lip and she has a white scar. Probably from wrestling with Louie (he plays too rough).

She does play rough, especially with her man Jack. I wonder if because her lower teeth look like shark teeth if when she's playing the lower lip presses against the teeth. That could be it. It just cracked this weekend too.
 
Awwww little baby girl.... I think snout soother will help!
 
We should do a theme for Rabbit Teeth. :ROFL: I figured the inner splits were from her teeth. @acarabia

Vicky, I'll try neosporin too and see how that works. [MENTION=2614]Vicaroo1000[/MENTION]

I'll report back after her vet visit.
 
Nitsxhke had this too... never was dry but he had the little split in the middle of his lip
