Nose Butter® moisturizes, smooths, softens, and revitalizes your dog's nose. Use Nose Butter 2-3x a day and In just 1-3 days YOUR dog can have a smooth, moist, healthy nose. Then use as needed for maintenance (usually 1-3x a week).
Bernese Mountain Dog, roughly translated from the German "Berner Sennenhund," which means "Bernese Alpine Herdsman's Dog." How is that for the epitome of a down to earth, "tell it like it is" name? The name Sennenhund is derived from the German Senne (“alpine pasture”) and Hund (“dog”), as these dogs were always seen by the side of alpine herders and dairy farmers called Senn. Berner (or Bernese in English) refers to the area of the breed’s origin, the town of Bern in Switzerland.

Usage Overview for All Products
• Complete tips, hints & directions brochure is included with every order
• Tin: Scoop a bit out with finger or spoon and warm in your palm before application for faster absorption
• Tube: Warm by putting in pocket for a few minutes for faster absorption
• Dab on your dog's nose/paws/elbow/affected area
• Distract your dog to keep them from licking it off (give treat, feed dinner, go for walk)
• Repeat 2-3x daily for 1-3 days or until there is an improvement
• Use as needed for maintenance (usually 1-2x a week)
• Products have no active ingredients and will not harm your dog if they lick some off. But we do want the product to get its work done, so see distract tips
Note: Our balms have a very thick, stiff consistency, because your dog's nose/paw/elbow callus is very thick skin tissue. If it were a fluffy cream, it would not work.
Distraction Tips
• Many dogs do not like being controlled tightly and will try to get away, apply FAST
• Give treats before, during and after application, if needed. Peanut butter on a wooden spoon is a good one!
• Feed their dinner after application
• Play your dog's favorite game
• Throw a ball or go for a walk
• Think of it like cutting toenails or giving meds. Sometimes we have to do what’s in our dog's best interest.
Nose Butter Specific Tips
• Flat-faced dogs, with already restricted breathing, often dislike having their noses touched.
• Toy dogs are aware of how vulnerable their size makes them.
• Nose Butter for Springer Spaniel's the same product as Nose Butter® for Chihuahuas, just different labels
• Nose Butter® is a different formulation from Paw Butter, Elbow Butter & Boo Boo Butter. Each is formulated for the needs of the specific type of skin tissue.
