TIPS FOR GETTING & KEEPING NOSE BUTTER ON YOUR DOG

DISTRACT & DIVERT

To keep your dog from licking NOSE BUTTER off try the following:

Give a cookie or treat before and after application (added benefit – they soon associate NOSE BUTTER with yummy treats)
Feed dinner
Play a game
Go for a walk

FOR EXTREMELY DRY, CRUSTY, CRACKED NOSES

Apply 2-3x a day for 2-3 days
Test crusty area with tissue
If crust crumbles off drop back to maintenance application
If crust does not easily crumble off continue application 2-3x a day for 2-3 more days
Repeat test
Then use as needed for maintenance (may be daily for senior or compromised dogs)

ODDS & ENDS

NOSE BUTTER in the tin and the tube is same product, just different containers
NOSE BUTTER will do no harm if your dog licks some and swallows it (or eats the whole tin)
The new nose leather underneath may be lighter in color when crust comes off

MORE TIPS FOR SMOOTH NOSE SUCCESS

Many dogs loathe being controlled, held tightly or messed with in any way. Flat-faced dogs often stress a bit more because their breathing is already compromised, so they instinctively try to prevent having their noses covered. Be FAST in applying NOSE BUTTER and they will not struggle as much.

Suggestions: Gently tap NOSE BUTTER onto their nose while they are sleeping. If your dog wakes up, act casual, like you did not do anything.

Give a treat that is gooey with a stronger smell (goat cheese, bit of peanut butter, tuna) with one hand and quickly dab NOSE BUTTER on with the other hand.
