I am going to be outdoors with my dog during the July 4th holiday. I have been reading about dogs needing sunblock, however most pet products I see are for the nose and paws. Is this the only area that needs to be covered to protect my pet?

Hi, the areas that need to be protected are those uncovered or just partially covered by fur and routinely exposed to the sun, so I would include the tip of the ears and areas above the eyes in certain breeds, as well as nose and paws.
