What are the reasons for a dog's runny nose?

There are many causes for a dog's runny nose.

Dogs have reactions to certain stimulating smells, such as pollen allergies, or scents like perfumes, floral waters, and essential oils, which can cause a dog's runny nose.

1. Cold

If a dog's respiratory tract is infected by bacteria or viruses, and they also have symptoms such as coughing and sneezing, it means they have a cold. At this time, the dog may also have a runny nose.

1. Rhinitis

Excluding the above two factors, if a dog's mucus is yellow and has a pus-like consistency, the possibility of rhinitis is high. This condition requires treatment under the guidance of a pet doctor.
