Irish Setter (definite introduction)
A dog's nose is a key for us to judge whether its body is healthy or not. Generally speaking, the nose of a strong dog is cold and moist. If the dog's nose suddenly becomes very dry, then we should give more warning. However, a dog’s dry nose is not entirely due to illness. Many factors can also cause a dog’s nose to become dry. So let’s take a look at the reasons why dogs have dry noses.
1. After the dog has been outdoors for a period of time in the summer, the nose becomes dry and accompanied by red fever or the nose lines disappear significantly, then the dog may have been sunburned. The skin in other parts of the dog's body can be protected by body hair, but the nose is the most vulnerable place to sunburn. Therefore, after they are exposed to the scorching sun for a long time, the owner needs to remember to take care of their noses. Especially those dogs with flesh-colored or pink noses, they need more protection!
2. If your dog has a dry nose and a runny nose, and it is thick, lumpy, yellow-green, or smells disgusting, you need to wear it immediately. Went to the vet. Because the dog's respiratory tract is likely to be affected, and even more serious diseases may be experienced.
3. The dog’s nose is dry, cracked, scabbed or ulcerated. These may be related to the dog's immune system, which also requires you to take your dog to the veterinarian to eliminate health problems.
4. If dogs stay near objects with higher temperatures for a long time, such as electric heaters and other tools, it may cause them to become slightly dehydrated, which may cause their noses to become dry.
Therefore, a dog’s nose becoming dry is not the only criterion for judging whether it is sick. It should be investigated whether the dog has any other adverse symptoms besides a dry nose.
