Hello,

Dry, cracked nose can be a clinical sign of some diseases, if your pet is a puppy the most important thing to worry about is distemper, it is a viral disease that affects dogs that have not been vaccinated with the multipurpose vaccine to v10 or v8.

White colored animals that present snout without pigmentation have a propensity to form cancer in this place when exposed to the sun, it is a skin cancer called squamous cell carcinoma, in this case the animal must be taken immediately to the veterinarian for a consultation, as he needs go through an oncologist.

Some skin diseases also present with this dryness in the nose and diagnosis will only be possible through clinical examination with a veterinarian, or even a biopsy.

Hope this helps
