Dog has dry crusty lip
Question: undefined Hello, my 1 yr old german shepard male has a super dry lip in the corner of his mouth. He took antibiotics for a while but the crustiness didnt improve. Is this something serious? Is it symptomatic of something? Please help! Answer: Has anyone ever heard of dogs having a crusty dry lip? It's in the corner of his mouth on only one side. His nose is wet & cold, he eats well & the other side of his mouth seems fine. I think its curious that this one side of his mouth is always super dry. Any ideas? Answer: I would ask the vet that prescribed the antibiotics in the first place. There must be a reason for the vet's Rx. Answer: Was there infection or was the antibiotic 'in case' of infection? It wouldn't hurt to put some aloe vera on it and some pure vitamin e But yes, ask the vet. Answer: Copyright © 2007 - 2008 www.tendlife.com
