What can I put on my dog's cut nose to help it heal while traveling?

I do not recommend putting anything on the snout, most dogs have a very long tongue that will get to whatever you put on the snout within 5 seconds. it doesn't sounds like a serious injury, just leave it as it is , it will heal within a few days.

I would put some neosporin in it twice a day. If it is deep, I would have your vet look at it to ensure she doesn’t need any stitches. I would not give her any human pain meds as most are toxic to dogs. I hope this helps!

Oh my! Poor Coco! Luckily the nose has good blood supply and it should heal just fine. If you want to use something on it to help it heal faster I would recommend this wound spray/gel - it will dry quickly and if he happens to lick it, it won't harm him. Hope this helps.

Place an e-collar (cone) on him to prevent pawing or rubbing. It should extend at least two inches beyond the tip of the nose. This may be enough to allow healing. If not, have him examined by your veterinarian.

Your dog may have rubbed it raw, under the couch or through the fence maybe? I suggest washing the area gently with antibacterial soap and water. Apply a warm washcloth 2-3 times a day for five minutes at a time to help keep it clean and draining. After washing and the compress, dry thoroughly and apply a dab of antibiotic ointment that **does NOT** contain hydrocortisone to the wound. Steroids will slow healing. An OTC triple antibiotic ointment will suffice. Rub it in well and don't leave any excess for your pet to lick off. If it does not show signs of healing or if your dog develops a fever, loses his appetite, starts vomiting or has diarrhea have him seen by your veterinarian right away. Potential cause may include allergies, infection, automimmune disease or even cancer. An e-collar (cone) may be used to prevent rubbing or pawing.

Gently clean the area with warm water and antiseptic soap. I would not point any antibiotic ointment on it because Merlin will just lick it off. You can try to put a bandage to protect the wound, but make sure it doesn't block his nostrils. You can put an Ecollar on him to keep him from rubbing at his nose, and I will put a link below on how to make one at home. Definitely have him seen by a vet tomorrow, as dog bites frequently become infected and he likely will need antibiotics. Good luck, I hope this helps! http://dogsaholic.com/care/homemade-dog-cone.html

Hi, I'm Dr. Johnson. Thanks for using Petco Pet Education Center, formerly Petcoach! Poor Lucy! The best way for the area to heal is to prevent Lucy from rubbing her nose. I'd recommend getting an Elizabethan Collar (aka "The Cone of Shame") and then apply some triple antibiotic on the area twice daily. Keep using the Cone until the area has healed. You can get Elizabethan collars at your vet and some pet stores. Good luck!
