ive talked to my vet alraedy. my 13 week old pug puppy has crustys under some of her wrinkles and in the crease abover her nose. the vet said to wipe them with a warm rag everyday. im doing this but while im sure its keeping the dermatitis from getting worse its not helping solve the current problem. how can i totally clean out the fungus under her wrinkles?
How can i clean my pugs wrinkles?
One article I found suggested using doggy earwash for the wrinkles (which you should probably have for your pug, since cute floppy ears also means dirty ears!)
I would be careful about using harsh chemicals like acne medication on your doggy - your vet may have a product that would be gentler but effective. We used to use an ointment called SWAT on our lambs. It worked well for skin irritation and also had medication in it to keep insects away.
Reply:Iron her lol. Just joking . Try using a Q-tip and baby oil. That will get to the samll spots and the baby oil will clean.
Reply:OIL WILL FESTER.USE COTTON BALLS SOAKED WITH PEROXIDE. NOT IN THE EYES.
Reply:Its a common problem with wrinkled dogs. They are high maint. Even if you find a better way to take care of the problem, it will be like having to feed or brush it. Its just necessary.
Reply:This will be an everyday occurrence, just like with English bulldogs. The "wrinkle" breeds need extra care and attention to their skin. Lots of them require you 'wash' their face everyday.
Reply:Use people acne medication, in cream and skin wipes.
Reply:I have wrinkled neo mastiffs, and I use sensative skin, fragrance free baby wipes. Works great.
