You should make the following decoction: a table-spoon of the dry
crude drug per a glass of water; the derived cure is infused
during 15-20 minutes, then sifted and cooled down to indoor

and treat the dog’s eyes carefully wiping them from the outer
corners to the nose.

Usually the health status of Cane Corso is appreciated by
touching its nose. If nose skin is cool and humid it means that
the dog’s body does not undergoes any serious
abnormalities. The evident symptom of the dog’s
disease is the nose hot by the feel as well as a dry and choppy
nose.
However, the nose warm to the touch is not necessarily the symptom
of some disease. One should take into account that certain rise of
skin temperature may occur in the pet after its awakening from a
dream or after strong physical stress. It is better to clean
contaminated skin of the nose with a soft clean napkin soaked in a
bit warmed water.
