My 3 year old peke, Boo, is constantly rubbing his nose across the carpet. I looked him over carefully (he had a hot spot a few months ago on his neck) felt something hard just above his nose. When I pulled up the fur & looked inside the fold, the fur looks scabbed into clumps. It is now starting to travel along the fold on the side of his nose. I want to give him some kind of relief and I could not get an appointment with the vet this weekend. Is there anything I can do to help him right now. My instict is to take a warm washcloth and clean it out - but im afraid it will do more damage?
