<DIV><FONT size=2 face=Arial>I understand that there are several causes for loss
of pigmentation in canine noses. Our sweet Molly had always had a
jet black nose until about six months ago. I did a little research
and found a website called naturalcanine.com which listed Discoid Lupus as a
possible cause and the treatment is aurum pills and sulphur pills (which they
just happen to sell). I sent off for some, gave them to her, and her
problem went away..... Her poor little (not) nose was not only-- not black--,
but it had cracks and sore places on
it. She still has little flair ups, but I
keep the stuff on hand and give it to her for a week or so and it gets
better. They sell a little "kit" which has the two types of pills
plus some lotion in it, but I can assure you I couldn’t keep any
lotion on her nose--(however, it was pretty good hand lotion). Just
another possibility.</FONT></DIV>
