PUG NOSE BUTTER FOR DRY PUG NOSES

Does Your Pug Have a Dry or Even Crusty Nose?

Pugs & Nasal Hyperkeratosis

Pug Nose Butter® moisturizes and soothes your Pug's nose…from a little dry to extreme nasal hyperkeratosis. Many Pugs are predisposed toward dry or even crusty noses, as do most flat-faced dog breeds. If your Pug's nose is covered with crusty layers of overgrown, barnacle-looking crud, it may be a condition called Nasal Hyperkeratosis.

Nasal Hyperkeratosis occurs when nose tissue is triggered and grows rampantly, forming layers of crusty skin. It's tempting to pick it, but don't, as it is living tissue and will bleed and hurt your Pug. While not life-threatening, there are several medical, cosmetic, and mental health reasons this dry nose condition can affect your dog's well-being.

Healthy Nose = Happy Pug

While your Pug may NEVER need to sniff out the trail of lost hikers, his sense of smell is still essential to him. If your Pug’s nose is dry, he will lick and lick as he tries to moisten it to get info. For example, when driving in an unfamiliar area and NO SERVICE pops up on our phone, it's frustrating, annoying and scary to be unable to access info. Your Pug feels the same way, knowing there are good smells that they can't sniff with a dry, crusty nose.

#1 Tip - For quicker absorption warm Nose Butter prior to using
• To warm; stick in your pocket, bra, or scoop some out & warm in palm (see image)
• Open the tin or tube
• Gently control your dog's face (side of face or under their chin)
• Avoid head-locks - that's a trigger for many dogs
• Tag Team - have someone hold & you apply
• (Tin) Scoop a bit out appropriate to the size of your dog’s nose
• Dab it on their nose
• Rub it in a bit, you do not have to rub it in completely as it melts quickly, especially if warm
• Distract to keep them from licking or rubbing it off
• Repeat 2-3x a day for 1-3 days or until nose is back in shape
• Then use as needed for maintenance (usually 1-2x a week)

• Apply 2-3x a day (do the best you can, 2-3x a day is the goal)
• After 2-3 days of multiple daily applications, gently rub the nose with tissue and see if it easily crumbles off
• If it does NOT crumble right off (it will look like black, greasy dirt), keep applying Nose Butter 2-3x a day until it easily, without picking, comes off
• Resist the urge to pick as tempting as it may be, it hurts and will make the process harder

The crusty stuff is actually skin and hurts your dog if you pick it off, just like us pulling a scab off a skinned knee too soon.

• Give a cookie or treat before, during and after application
• Cuddles, pets, repeat as needed
• Feed their dinner (with extra yummies)
• Play your dog's fave game
• Throw a ball
• Go for a walk
• Pet them, lavish praise on them for their overall good dog-ness
• TIP! Not only does something positive (like cookies) take their mind off having something done to them, they soon equate Nose Butter with treats.

Ouch! That hurt! It's not that your dog loathes Nose Butter (we hope not), they probably DO dislike being held tightly.

Being held in a WWE head-lock is a huge trigger for most dogs. If possible, allow them to stand while you apply Nose Butter and be quick

Additionally, flat-faced dogs will fight and struggle to protect their already hindered ability to breathe.

Toy breeds know they are small and will often put up an unbelievable tussle to get away when they feel over-powered.

Dogs are often triggered by being held tightly. This may come from when they were puppies. Puppy play involves a lot of wrestling and play-fight. It's not fun for dogs (or us) to have siblings pile on, hold us down and make us feel helpless. (I'm looking at my three sisters).

Stay relaxed and positive and be very generous with treats and your dog will soon enjoy, or tolerate, Nose Butter time.

The Bad News is there is no CURE for Nasal Hyperkeratosis, it is a condition and usually life-long.

If you stop using Nose Butter, the dryness and crust will probably come back.

The Good News is maintenance usage of Nose Butter keeps the Nasal Hyperkeratosis under control.

Nose Butter can help heal the dry nose, but doesn't cure the condition. Yes, it's semantics, but it helps make it clear.

When our hands are really cracked and dry we apply lotion to get them in shape, but we can't slather lotion on our hands once and be moisturized for life.

Like cutting your dog's toenails...Nose Butter is part of their health care regimen.

Amazing

I have done everything for my little pooga's dry, scaley, cracked itchy nose from coconut oil, olive oil, udder butter etc. I saw someone post about this on a pug group I follow its all natural so i figured it couldn't hurt plus it had amazing reviews... I have to say its 2 days in and her nose is 1 solid color it used to be gray and cracked on top and black on the bottom now she just has a black button nose again! She's no longer relentlessly scratching her nose on everything its still scaley but not as cracked but it's going to take time. I HIGHLY recommend this to anyone who has flat face dogs or dogs with dry noses.

One Happy Pug Nose

My 9 year old Pug Lenny has had a very dry and scaly nose for quite some time and I really didn’t know what to use on it, that not only moisturized his nose, but has safe ingredients as well. I happened on Blissful Dog website and was So excited to see the great products created by a shirt nose dog lover!! And I found the best nose butter ever!! I started using this on Lenny immediately and no kidding within 2 days his nose is like 80% better than it was, in just a couple days!! It’s got to feel so much better for him! I also ordered the flat face wash and the dirty dog shampoo. So happy with it all, I will continue to shop Blissful Dog feom now on! Looking into the aromatherapy products next!! Thank you Blissful Dog feom the bottom of our Pug Hearts!! ❤️

What a great picture! Thank you so much for sharing that with us. Isn't it fun to find other people who are crazy about their dogs, too? -Kathy

Miracle butter!

After only two days of use, my pugs nose was healing. It’s been a week, no cracks, back to black and normal wet looking now, compared to the awful pale blistering cracks there once was! I’m amazed. Excellent product, thank you so so much! Below is before and after!

There is something so dignified about senior Pugs. They look so wise and worldly! We're delighted you had such success with Nose Butter and your Pug's nose. Remember to keep using it a couple of times a week or so to keep that perfect nose in shape. Thank you again, Kathy

Miracle cream!!

I bought this for my Pug rescue who had a horribly dry nose. The cracks were so bad on the end of her nose, I thought she may have had scarring because of it. In only 4 days, her nose looks like a baby puppy’s nose! I’d been using other things and nothing worked. This stuff is awesome! Before and after shots!

First, thank you for supporting rescue and a senior, also. She is a very lucky Pug. Second, WOW! She looks absolutely fabulous! She has to feel a lot better also. I wish I could jump through the internet and give her sweet face a kiss. Thank you for sharing! -Kathy

My Pug's nose is completely healed WITHOUT surgery!

"I just wanted to let you know how much we a appreciate your product! I left a great review on Amazon where I purchased but I also wanted to leave one on your website. Keep up the great work!

"Our vet told us our Pug would need surgery in order to get rid of the crust that was growing on her nose. Never owning a pug before I believed him and began saving up for the expensive surgery. After doing a little research I stumbled upon stories about pugs and dry noses. More research led to Nose Butter and the various brands. I took a chance and purchased this one through Amazon.

"In only 1 month this was the before and after! My Pug's nose is completely healed WITHOUT surgery! I also sent this my vet to show that surgery was not needed. My poor dog was suffering while I was trying to save for this expensive unnecessary surgery that my vet told me was needed all while I just could have purchased this inexpensive product and had her nose healed in a month.

"Give it a try I promise it works! I swear by it! We are even trying the Paw Butter!"

S.V. - This review was emailed to The Blissful Dog with the request it be posted. We are glad to oblige ;-D

Amazing !

Our pug had this condition for a long time and we were never informed of what it was or how to treat this so I took it upon myself to look it up and found your product. We received it two days ago and we we cannot believe how the very big buildup has already fallen off and how much his nose looks normal. This product is amazing and we are so thankful that Mr. Marbles has his cute puggie nose is almost back to normal.

That's what we love to here! We're thrilled our Nose Butter worked great for your Mr.Marbles! Thank you for the great review and photos! - Kathy

Okay—but we are still dealing with something

My little buddy has a recurring scab on his nostril. We flick it off every couple of weeks but it reappears. He has been to the vet but she was not familiar with the issue. It’s a little perplexing. So we will keep at the butter for a little longer.

Keep using it! The more you use it the better the nose will look! Thank you for the review! - Kathy
