In this review the Shetland Sheepdog Unscented Nose Butter, 16-Ounce is evaluated as a targeted remedy for dogs with dry, crusty noses. The bottom line: it is best for owners who want a simple, non-toxic, fragrance-free balm that restores softness quickly by using rich, natural butters and oils. Handcrafted in far northern MN and formulated without active chemicals, this unscented tin is especially useful for dogs prone to persistent dryness and for owners who prefer an edible-safe, easy-to-apply product.

Key Features

• All-natural blend: The formula uses shea butter, olive oil, castor oil and other natural oils to deeply moisturize and soften a rough nose.
• Handcrafted in MN: Each batch is made in far northern Minnesota, emphasizing small-batch quality and attention to ingredients.
• Unscented option: The fragrance-free version avoids added perfumes so it is suitable for scent-sensitive dogs and owners.
• Easy application: The butter applies with a simple dab to the nose, making daily care quick and low-stress for both pet and owner.
• Varied sizes: Available in multiple tin sizes including this 16-ounce tin for frequent users or multi-dog households, plus tubes for different needs.

Who It's For

This product is aimed at owners of breeds that commonly suffer dry, crusty noses or anyone whose dog shows visible dryness or cracking. It is particularly convenient for people who prefer handcrafted, natural formulations and need an unscented option to avoid irritation.

Owners who want a medicated treatment for an underlying medical condition, or who need veterinarian-prescribed active ingredients, should consult their vet instead. This balm is a moisturizing, palliative care product rather than a therapeutic medication.

Pros & Cons

Pros

• Restores softness quickly with rich butters like shea for visible improvement in days.
• Unscented, non-toxic formula reduces risk of irritation and is safe if licked.
• Handcrafted, small-batch production emphasizes ingredient quality and consistency.

Cons
