Is Your Dog’s Dry Nose Hiding a Secret Health Warning You Can’t Afford to Miss?
Sunburn can also cause a dry nose that is painful to touch. Dogs with a pink or pale nose are especially prone to sunburn. Using a dog-specific sunscreen when out in the sun for long periods may help prevent sunburn.
Other causes of a dog’s dry nose include environmental allergies, strenuous exercise, blocked tear ducts, cold weather, heatstroke (their body temperature becomes dangerously high), old age and autoimmune disease. There are many causes, so contact your vet if you have concerns about a dry dog nose, especially if there are other symptoms, and remember that a sick dog can also have a wet nose.
