I got this from the hennwood website I learned from :
Water does not cause an issue when it goes up in the nose, formula or gruel will set up a nasty sinus infection so that is why they totally skip that part. As mentioned the water up into nasal passages can actually be beneficial. If there is any debris up in the nasal passages, dirt, etc. a common occurrence as pups learn the great outdoors, the water actually helps rinse out the nasal passages for a better description. They also develop a total tolerance to it, the more they drink the better they do as far as any out the nose and they get so it is of no issue at all. I think of how it feels to get water up in my nose, but evidently with regular exposure their nasal passages adapt. Just another great way of Mother Nature.
I figured since Tia has only been having formula that hopefully it was ok that some of it was coming up thru her nose. |
