In your picture it looks like Theo might have mild nasal hyperkeratosis. Unfortunately there is no oral medication that I am aware of that would help this condition. I often recommend a fatty acid supplement for skin issues, and I think you could try one although it might not make much of a difference. There are some autoimmune diseases that can also cause a very dry, crusty sometimes ulcerated nose so if your veterinarian has not examined Theo for this problem I would recommend making an appointment. Good luck - he's adorable!
