Hi and thanks for posting. Warts can sometimes be frozen off with cryotherapy or surgical removed. Cysts can often be drained but some of them do require surgical removal in order to completely get rid of. If Kalu has a stuffy nose, she may have an upper respiratory infection or may have another respiratory condition or sinus issue. I would recommend she see her veterinarian for an evaluation for this as well as the cysts/warts.

Hi my 5 year old dog has this on her nose ( saw it 4 days ago) and getting bigger. What could it be and is there anything I can do? Thank you.

Ouch! Any new or suddenly growing growth like this should be checked out by your vet in person ASAP. Allergies, infections, skin irritation from rubbing it on things, and some growths and tumors can all cause spots like that on the nose, and can also cause rapid changes and discoloration like this. Until you can get to your vet, I would place an Elizabethan (cone) collar on Amber and keep the spot clean and dry to help reduce any further irritation. It is also a good idea to monitor the size and shape of it and how rapidly it is changing as this can help your vet figure out what may be going on. Your vet will likely take a full history as well as a potential sample of the spot to see what cells are present and provide treatment as needed.

My dog got a red spot pop up on her nose and I thought it was just a scrape and going away but it is starting to get bigger. Do I need to take her in? What could it be?

Ouch! Due to how inflamed that looks I would definitely schedule a vet visit ASAP. Sudden growths/irritations like that can be due to a number of things including bacterial infections, tumors, irritation from digging/rubbing at the spot too much, allergies, etc so it's good to see your vet. They'll likely want to take a sample of the area to determine what is going on and how best to treat it. In the meantime, it's a good idea to place an Elizabethan (cone) collar on Nova to keep her from rubbing at the spot, as well as keep the area clean and dry. If the area is rapidly growing in size, taking note of the size, color, shape changes, etc can help your vet better determine what is going on. If you are noticing any other symptoms (sneezing, fever, loss of appetite, etc) these are important to let your vet know as well.

My otherwise healthy 3 year old lab started coughing heavily at 5:30 this morning. He has had episodes of the heavy cough about 1-2 times per hour since. Nothing comes up; he has been able to eat and drink normally. He has also urinated as normal. He is behaving, moving, and interacting normally with all humans and animals. He has no discoloration of his gums, tongue, or nose. We believe he may have swallowed a piece of a toy, but doesn’t appear in any discomfort. Should we see his vet?

Hello, thank you for you using PetCaoch. Sorry that Fozzy is coughing. The most likely diagnosis for a young dog that is coughing would be kennel cough (Bordetella). Even if vaccinated against it he could still be infected. It's kind of like the COVID vaccine for us - it may lessen symptoms but does not stop infection. While young dogs also tend to ingest pieces of toys (or other objects) they do not usually cough when this happens. They typically vomit and have inappetence. While possible, it is not as likely as kennel cough. Another possibility is that there is something stuck in the back of his throat (ie: a piece of stick or something like that). In my many years in veterinary medicine I have not seen this happen very often but it is possible. I do think you should take him to the vet for an exam. This is something that is very difficult to "diagnose" via the internet without an exam. Hope this helps. Best wishes.

my dog has dried boogers on one side of her nose, what could that mean?

Thank you for contacting Boop by Petco with your question about Eevee. This could indicate nasal discharge, which may be a sign of a respiratory infection, allergies, or even a foreign body stuck in the nasal passage. I would clean up the area, and keep an eye on her. As long as she is acting normally and showing no signs of illness such as continuing nasal discharge, sneezing, coughing, lethargy, difficulty breathing, or a loss of appetite, it's fine to watch her. Should she show any of the signs I mentioned above, then she will need to see a vet. I hope this helps!

Hi, I have a 10 year old German Shepherd/Labrador Retriever mix. Today I noticed this spot under his nose. It is flat and peeling a little. Other than this spot he seems to be normal. What could this be? Thanks!

Hello, thank you for using Boop by Petco. It is very difficult to say what this lesion could be. It almost looks like he scraped it causing a superficial wound. I suggest you try using this topical wound spray on the lesion 3-4 times per day for about a week to 10 days. If there is no improvement after that time then I think you should take Marco to your vet for an exam.

What can be wrong with my cat? She passed a bit bigger hairball during the night. She was very stressed about it. When she was regurgitating - liquid even came out of her nose. For a while she continued to make regurgitating attempts, was distressed and looked tired. Now 5 hours later : her eyes are watery and a bit closed, runny nose, she intensively rubs her nose and sneeze from time to time, looks fatigue and mostly sleeps. Thank you!

Hello there, thanks for choosing Boop by Petco. Goodness! That certainly does sound like a scary experience for Persyk. Hairballs shouldn't cause this much trouble coming up, though I can't be certain why it was such an issue this time. However, based on your description of Persyk after the event, it sounds like she has some vomitus in her nasal passages. A small amount of liquid should resolve on it's own within a day or two, but if there was any solid material, it could have become trapped and would continue to cause the nasal pain, sneezing, running nose, etc. I would say that if she isn't back to normal in a day or so, she needs to be checked out by a vet. After physical examination, the vet may recommend sedation to flush the nasal passage and do a more thorough exam.
