| stickers in a puppy's muzzle Any suggestions? He got into a patch of stickers and has two in his muzzle. Any tips or tricks out there for a less painful way to remove them? He is a twelve week old puppy. Thanks in advance! |

| Good Luck - Baxter stepped on tape and it was stuck under his paws. Took a lot of patience to remove it without hurting him - Maybe try some ice on it and see if that make it loser - |

| clarification Gizmo's stickers are in the hair on the outside of his nose. I think the best thing is to cut them out, but I wanted to ask this group before I got the scissors out. Judy |

| Oh, poor Gizmo! Yes, I'd say cut them out, very carefully. Good luck!

| If you can't cut (or don't feel comfortable doing so)them out, you could apply some cooking oil to the stickers. After a little bit, that should dissolve the adhesive. Those must be some heavy-duty strength scissors!

| Thanks! Ida's ice suggestion gave me an idea! I wet the area with a combo of water and conditioner. The stickers just slid out! Not a single yelp. Yea! Thanks, A happy Gizmo and happier puppy mom P.S. the sticker area is now OFF LIMITS! lol |
