Bumpy, scaley rash on nose (hers, not mine)
« on: November 21, 2011, 11:19:09 AM »
My lab just developed a bumpy, scaley rash on the area just behind her nose, top of her snout....think where the nose ends and the fur begins.
It came fast and has expanded to an area approx 3/8" from front to back and across the top of her nose.
Doesn't seem to cause her any discomfort.
Not bleeding or weeping...just bumpy and scaley.
Any ideas what it is and how concerned I should be?

Could have stuck her nose into some Nettles or Thistles and got jabbed by those nasty thorns.  That's what happens to animals that go through life nose-first.
If it was easy, everybody would be doing it.

Did you recently change food? Sounds like an allergy. Go to vet.
