My 13 year old dog has been having a stuffy and dry nose for a couple of days. Also she has discharge on her eyes. I see yellowish discharge in her nose and it's so dry that it's scabby. Every now and then she sneezes. What should I do? Other than this she's doing excellent.

Thank you.

Several homeopathic remedies appear to fit the symptoms you described, such as calc. carb., sulfur, bryonia, and nuv vomica, to name a few, but I would have to know a lot more about your dog to be able to make a fitting choice.

Hi Dr. Tobin,

I'm not sure what I should add to describe my dog, she's on a thin side, eats great and drinks normal amount. Her stool might be yesllowish every now and then. The weakest part of her body has been her back legs (She's Golden mix) but still runs around in the yard. She gets ear infection easily. She's a sweet girl to us the owners but can be pretty dominant to the other dogs we have. She is a "when she wants it, she wants it NOW" type dog. She never like her paws get wet and prefers colder spots in the house. She loves sleeping leaning against something like wall or the end of our (human) bed.

Thank you.

It's getting more scabby today. I noticed also that she has more discharge on her right eye than her left eye. Actually her left eye doesn't have much discharge.

Thank you for your help in advance.

Try Nux vomica 30c, one pellet twice a day.
