Sunscreen For Pup's Nose

[Katdogs]

New member of our extended family has white markings and a pink nose. He is going to be part of an active young family and spend a lot of time outdoors, camping and at the beach. Any recommendations for sun protection?

I use Filtabac.. I like it because it has a nice consistency, thick enough to apply easily. It's also pretty affordable and doubles up as an antiseptic for minor grazes and cuts

I also use filtabac on my dog's pink nose.

I used Filtabac when I was told that Zinc for humans is toxic to dogs.

I use Vetbasix Pet Sunscreen. I use it for my Ragdoll Cat who has a pink nose when he goes into his outdoor module but it's for cats and dogs

I use Plush puppy sunsrean, it goes on nose, toes and testicles

I use regular zinc, our vet said it would be ok

I also use that filtabac stuff which i also use on cuts etc. but he licks it off so fast i wonder if its working on his nose, he does like the zinc off quick to but it does seem to stay on a little bit longer...
