{"title":"Dog Sunscreen","description":"\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eYes, dogs can get sunburned. Just like us, dogs exposed to strong sun can develop red, painful skin, and repeated sun damage over time raises the risk of certain skin cancers. Fur offers some protection, but noses, ear tips, bellies and thinly haired areas are exposed. Dog sunscreen is an easy way to protect those vulnerable spots on beach days, hikes and long summer afternoons. At T-Rex Pets, our dog sunscreen collection includes dog-safe sunscreen sprays, sticks and balms, nose protectors and sun-protective gear.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2 dir=\"ltr\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eWhich Dogs Need Sunscreen the Most?\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eAny dog spending time in the sun can benefit, but some are at higher risk:\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli dir=\"ltr\" aria-level=\"1\"\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\" role=\"presentation\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eDogs with white or light-colored coats,\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003e such as Dalmatians, Bull Terriers, white Boxers and white Pit Bull-type dogs.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli dir=\"ltr\" aria-level=\"1\"\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\" role=\"presentation\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eHairless and thin-coated breeds,\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003e like the Chinese Crested, American Hairless Terrier, Whippets and Greyhounds.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli dir=\"ltr\" aria-level=\"1\"\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\" role=\"presentation\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eDogs with pink noses and eyelids,\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003e including dogs with \"snow nose\" that lightens seasonally.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli dir=\"ltr\" aria-level=\"1\"\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\" role=\"presentation\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eShort-haired dogs\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003e that sunbathe belly-up.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli dir=\"ltr\" aria-level=\"1\"\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\" role=\"presentation\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eDogs with a summer shave\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003e or clipped coat.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli dir=\"ltr\" aria-level=\"1\"\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\" role=\"presentation\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eDogs with hair loss,\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003e skin conditions or surgical scars.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli dir=\"ltr\" aria-level=\"1\"\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\" role=\"presentation\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eDogs that spend long hours outdoors,\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003e at the beach, lake, boat or on trails.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch2 dir=\"ltr\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eWhy You Shouldn't Use Human Sunscreen on Dogs\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eDogs lick their noses and bodies, so anything you apply is likely to be swallowed.
