[NAGDU] Nose owie

[Danielle Sykora]

Tracy,

I swear more than half of the dogs I know in this area are
experiencing more severe allergy symptoms than usual right now. Not
really sure what it is, but I'm assuming it's something relating to
the unusual weather.

I second the suggestion of coconut oil, and a bath might not be a
terrible idea to help get rid of whatever is causing Krokus to be
itchy. Just rinsing him with water might help too.

I can't remember if you give fish oil or not, but if you do,
increasing the dose for a while would be beneficial.

Danielle and Thai
