The skin on a dog’s nose is very thin and is easily affected by factors such as climate, food, disease, and drugs, causing dandruff and peeling. Here are some possible causes of flaky skin on your dog’s nose:
Dry air: Dry air can cause the skin on your dog’s nose to become dry and prone to peeling. This condition can be alleviated by providing your dog with adequate water and moisturizer.
Baking in the sun: The sun can burn the dog’s nose and cause peeling. Dogs need shelter such as parasols or tree shade when the sun is strong.
Drugs: Certain medications can cause a dog's nose to dry out and peel. If your dog is taking medication, you should check with your veterinarian about the possibility of this side effect.
Disease: Certain diseases, such as skin diseases and autoimmune diseases, can cause your dog's nose to peel. If your dog's nose is unusually peeling, you should consult your veterinarian.
In short, if the dog’s nose is peeling, diagnosis and treatment need to be carried out according to the specific situation.
