moosepup Posted February 25, 2014 Share Posted February 25, 2014 Okay, just got home from work and noticed that Nacho's nose looks a little funny, a bit like it's swollen on the top. Am I seeing things? He's not bothered by it and inside his mouth looks all normal. Just monitor? Today on the right. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
persephone Posted February 25, 2014 Share Posted February 25, 2014 ouch! I wonder what happened ? Bump/dog bite/sting? Do his jowls/lips look feel swollen/thicker than usual? example - looking at him front on do they look like [ ] or ( ) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Ams Posted February 25, 2014 Share Posted February 25, 2014 Is he breathing okay through his nose? It does look swollen. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
denali Posted February 25, 2014 Share Posted February 25, 2014 definitely looks swollen. I would say he encountered another critter with a bite or sting! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
moosepup Posted February 25, 2014 Author Share Posted February 25, 2014 (edited) Could be anything! He and Moosey do bitey face but there's no wound or anything. If I don't look at him with my paranoid eyes on he looks normal front on (he naturally has a bit of a fat muzzle). Lips don't feel swollen. Breathing and behaviour is all normal. Bloody dogs.

moosepup Posted February 25, 2014 Author Share Posted February 25, 2014 I think I'll just keep an eye on it and if it's still swollen in the morning make a vet appt as I'll be home earlyish tomorrow. My vet is 24 hours though if it gets worse. If it was a bite and he was going to have some sort of anaphylaxis it would have happened already right?
