We have a serious skunk problem here. My guy's generally get "skunked" 3-4 times a year.

Natures Miracle Skunk Odor Remover works!! I put it in a spray bottle and spay them down real good, then rub it in so it get's down to the skin. I've never had it dry them out or bleach there coat. By the time their coat dries there is not much smell left. wait a couple day's and give them a good bath

My little Newmie (Newman) already has calloused areas on elbows; I know this comes with the territory but he is only
3+/- months old. So, I tried what I do to my heels (so dry, I keep my spare change in the cracks.....) I rub the calloused areas with maximum strength acne pads (2% salicylic acid). I buy the cheapest (usually in house brand/knock off). Then, I plaster on any thick ointment that is highly emollient and protects (bag balm, white petroleum, some diaper rash ointments, etc). I have been doing this for one week, and I have some little hairs growing through Now, I know one day what these elbows will look like; they will be past the point of return. For now, while he is such a pup, it makes me feel better

For calloused elbows and dry noses:
I use Kerasolv Gel made by DVM. It's a little on the expensive side but a little goes a long way. If you use it faithfully you will be pleased with the results. It is also good to use faithfully before a dog show. The nose is so smooth, dark and no cracks.
For hygromas:
Check out http://www.dogleggs.com. My Boulder loves his dogleggs. Not only does he not have hygromas but I feel as if they act as extra elbow support as if wearing a knee brace. And in his older years he's probably enjoying the extra support.

if your dog drools alot besides taking an old cloth to wipe the drool. Wash out an old empty spray bottle and fill it with lemon juice, then spray it on the inside of his mouth mainly were the drool comes out (this will prevent him from drooling.) that's what i do
hope i helped.
