Anyone know what this is? Any over the counter stuff make it better? Like
Bag Balm? Thanks!

It looks like sunburn.

Have a vet take a look, just to be sure.

I wouldn't try to treat this yourself, it looks pretty bad.

he's not my dog or he would have been at the vet when the problem first
cropped up.

so, thanks for offering no help

And apparently offereing a crap attitude to boot.

Jen, I hope Riley's nose gets better. And that you can find a home for him
as well as convince his owners to give him up once you do. He's a real
peach of a dog.

Ya know - not everyone here knows everyone's history.

You posted a picture of a dog and asked for help. Nothing in your post
indicated that it wasn't your own dog. Given that, the responding post
wasn't all that rude. The person probably didn't need to add "Probably
not". And you probably didn't need to add "thanks for offering no help".

We get used to this being a group of people who have been around here for a
while and who had at least a passing knowledge of each others' dogs and the
history. But you assumed that everyone reading your request for help would
somehow automatically know who Riley is and what his relationship to you is.

Do you know how long it has been this way? could be allergies, fungal/
yeast. If it was a dog that got groomed i'd think razor/clipper burn.
Have they made changes in his diet? or do they think it is no big
deal? If it is only on the snout, makes me wonder if he is rubbing
against things or when on walks or off lead? Hopefully they will take
him to the vet

Hey - maybe this skin thing can be used as an opportunity to
convince the owners to give him up. "Gosh, I don't know
what that is but skin problems can be sooooooo expensive to
diagnose and treat!"

(BTW, Riley looks like a dog that might take a shine to
bikejoring, and it's great exercise).

I don't expect them to but they shouldn't make assumptions either (the
"probably not" comment that seemed to make it sound like I am the owner and
a bad one at that).

because I didn't think it was relevant

the part that was rude was the "probably not". if they wouldn't have added
that, my response would have been much more user friendly.


probably not

no, I did not assume that. I did assume that it didn't mattered who owned
the dog in question when I asked for help. If I thought it mattered, I
would have included that information in my original post.

mauijnp

I like your thinking!

I'll have to google this topic because I only know a little bit of info
about it.

Thanks!
