5 out of 5 starsThe dog does lick her nose when we use the butter, but at least we feel like we are doing something to help the cracking.

5 out of 5 starsThis stuff really is amazing if I can get it on his nose twice I see an improvement that’s tricky though since he wants to lick it right off. Great product!!! Thanks

5 out of 5 starsI waited a bit before leaving a review until I actually used it. The shampoo smells great! My dogs' coats are black and white. They smell so good and their coats were soft. I haven't used enough times yet to notice the brightness for the white part of their coats, but this shop's products never let me down. Thanks!

The Blissful Dog Tale...Tail (Stop Me, Please)
For almost 30 years I bred and showed Top Ranked, Top Winning, Fancy Schmancy #1 French Bulldogs. Yep, just like the movie Best in Show, I WAS the crazy woman screeching about her dog having to have a certain treat. Of course, my dogs had to look and feel their best and unfortunately, some of my Frenchies had some gnarly, crusty, cracked noses.
Then one day, back in 2003, I was slathering shea butter on my legs and without thinking dabbed some on my Frenchie's noses. The next day their noses looked much better and so it began! The rest of this tale (tail) is farther down in my story.
The Blissful Dog offers all natural and organic, handcrafted solutions for your dog's problems. NOSE BUTTER® for dry or crusty. cracked noses, PAW BUTTER for rough paws, ELBOW BUTTER for elbow calluses and BOO BOO BUTTER for discomforts that need some extra attention. Plus, our Dog Aromatherapy line of RELAX, AGE WELL, and FOCUS to support your dog's mental health.
Every single tube, tin and batch of Nose, Paw, Elbow and Boo Boo Butter is handcrafted individually by my team and I, for your dog, from the finest human quality organic ingredients.
With each batch of butters made, we send all the love in our hearts to you and your dogs. Each order that comes in I say thank you, individually, and each product is sent on its way to you with the intention that you and your dog be thrilled with the results. We are honored that you have trusted us with your dog's health and well-being.
Back to the HOW IT ALL STARTED STORY...The idea popped into my head that the Frenchies LIKED the shea butter, so why not make something healthy to moisturize their noses with! My EUREKA moment…not quite like discovering the Earth was round or whatever Archimedes did…but what the heck NOSE BUTTER® was born!
After sharing my NOSE BUTTER® with dog show Frenchie friends on a limited basis for years, it occurred to me there are other types of dogs besides French Bulldogs (duh) that had dry noses. So I began creating more labels with more breeds depicted. As online shopping became more popular and great places like ETSY popped up, The Blissful Dog grew and grew!
Then Boo Boo Butter™ (for owies), Paw Butter™ (do I have to say it? for paws) and Elbow Butter™ were born. Aren't you proud I did not name that one Elbow Grease?
Now The Blissful Dog is in hundreds of shops, boutiques, rescue organization shops, grooming shops and tattoo parlors (really) all over the world! Join us in our mission to help every dog have a blissful life.
OFFICIAL NOTICE: NOSE BUTTER® and The Blissful Dog® are Trademarked Names that I own the legal Registered Trademarks to. I will passionately enforce the Trademark for both names and request that my creativity and hard work be respected by my fellow ETSY vendors. Thank you.
