« on: July 04, 2011, 04:18:35 pm »
Has anyone heard of a suntan lotion for dogs? I've got a bald one chilling around who needs something to prevent any burning.

Do you mean sunscreen, SatSekhem?

Yes, I did. This is what I get for trying to get this post in before dinner was ready. :rolleyes:

:D Well, I can't really help you much (my forte is with cats, not dogs). My advice would be to call your vet and ask them (if my assumption is correct, you'll at least be able to talk to a veterinary assistant) for advice. They could probably tell you what you can use, or if there are specific dog-safe brands.

You can use sunscreen that's made for humans with sensitive skin.  I've had to care for a few dogs who needed to wear sunscreen in the past.  I don't know for sure if they make any specifically for dogs (you could probably look around on the internet and find something), and I honestly wouldn't worry about it.  Just get some gentle sunscreen from the store and you should be good to go.

Never used it on a dog, but we used to put children's sunblock on my potbellied pig and he has pretty sensitive skin.  Maybe try it on a small area first to make sure there's no reaction?
