Why is my dog's clear runny nose frequent even in warm weather?

Poor Daisy. If the discharge is just clear and not yellow or green, then this is likely a sign of allergic rhinitis. Something in the environment is causing her to have an allergic inflammatory response in her nasal passages. However, as long as the discharge remains clear she may get over this on her own over the next few weeks. Monitor her daily for any changes and have her seen by your veterinarian if things get worse (sneezing, infection type discharge, decreased appetite, etc). But hopefully she won't need to be seen and she improves on her own.

The most likely causes are an infection or allergies. An object stuck in the nose is possible but typically tends to be one sided and will start to have greenish discharge. If she starts to get worse or doesn’t get better, have her examined by her veterinarian. Hope she continues improving. Please feel free to post any additional questions.

It is probably nothing to worry about. It is normal for Missy to have a warm, wet nose (dry and cool is also normal). I would monitor for coughing, lethargy, and loss of appetite but would not change anything at this time.

I am sorry to hear about Hyper. If she is still active/energetic, eating and drinking well, and has no coughing or sneezing I would continue to monitor her closely at home. The runny nose could be a result of a mild upper respiratory infection (most often viral, occasionally bacterial or fungal), an allergy to something in the environment like pollen, or an irritant in the nasal passages such as a piece of grass or dirt. You can try placing Hyper in a room with a humidifier or bringing her into the bathroom while you run a steamy shower for 10 minutes to give her a steam treatment as keeping the respiratory passages moist is helpful in these cases. If Hyper becomes lethargic, stops eating, has trouble breathing, is coughing, or the discharge turns green/yellow then a visit to the vet is recommended. Best of luck to you and Hyper!

Hi. Poor baby. I would recommend getting an antihistamine from your veterinarian to try. Usually if the runny nose is clear, it is allergies or a viral infection. The antihistamines will help with allergies and a virus just needs to run its course. Its good news that she is doing great otherwise.

A runny nose in a dog can be a sign of an upper respiratory infection or allergies. If Maxine doesn't have any other symptoms, such as a cough or sneezing, I would not be concerned, but it would be a good idea to take her into the vet on Monday to have it checked out.

You spelled it just right! The discharge does look like it's clear, so it could be allergy related like your vet suggested earlier. Seeing if your vet can prescribe a medication to treat allergies may help improve his symptoms. If they continue, or the coughing/discharge worsens, additional examination or an X-ray to check the lungs and chest may be beneficial in determining the problem. Hope max gets feeling better fast!
