Product Review-Natural Dog Snout Soother

Recently I had the opportunity to try the Natural Dog Snout Soother on my dogs. I wish I had been able to try it in January or February. All 4 of my dogs usually need it then. But now, only my old guy Joey who is 14 years old, could use a little help in the snout area. As a disclaimer, I did not receive any compensation for this review but I did receive the product to try.
First of all, the snout protector came beautifully wrapped. The literature that came with it says it is good for drying and cracking, a natural sunscreen, canine acne, windburn prevention, rashes and skin irritations and Brachyecephalic breeds. Elice Strickland, president of the company states that this soother is for dogs what chapstick is for people and is great for prevention, not just the cure.
When I first put it on Joey, he licked it off and that worried me a little. But looking at their FAQ page, this stuff isn't toxic and it states that it works well for humans too ( I assume lips for humans, not noses). SO I tried it on my own lips since they are always on the dry side. I have to say, it doesn't taste like chapstick but actually, it works much better than chapstick.
After several attempts, Joey stopped licking his nose and kept it on. I noticed his nose looked better within a day and within several days, he had a smooth nose again! Now I just put it on in the morning during his "medicine time" as we call it (it's when he takes his various medications and then gets a treat as a reward for putting up with it). He doesn't mind me putting on the snout soother though. Below is a picture of his nose.
I can definitely recommend the Natural Snout Soother. The only drawback I can see is it's a little on the pricey side. But it does seem to last a long time, so one small container will last you quite awhile. We have been using it for several weeks now and it doesn't even look like we have made a dent in the jar.

Little Fanticos Soccer Dog Jerseys
Recently I got the chance to check out these cool little dog jerseys. I was sent one for review from Little Fanaticos. It was too small for any of my dogs but I got a chance to look at the quality of the jersey. I have to say it was very well made! They look like they would last quite a long time even with dogs who tend to be rough on their clothing.
If you are a soccer fan, one of these would look adorable on your dog. They have one for USA like the one pictured above, and also have jerseys for France, Germany, Brazil, and England.
They also carry dog jackets but only for the countries of Italy and Mexico. And they carry a dog gift basket that looks quite cute.
The only real drawbacks I can see is I wish they had a USA jacket and also had sizes for medium-large to large dogs so my pups could get one. The sizes are Teacup which fits the teacup breeds, XX-Small which fits a Yorkie or Brussels Griffon, X-Small will fit a Jack Russell or a Fox Terrier, Small will fit a Shih Tzu or a Miniature Poodle, and Medium will fit a Lhasa Apso or a Miniature Schnauzer.
