Book Chapter
The Nose and Smelling
2017
Overview
A decrease in a pet's sense of smell may be partial or complete and can lead to a decreased appetite, malnutrition or weight loss, as smell and taste are both involved with “tasting” food. The most common condition seen in geriatric pets involving the nose and smelling is neoplasia. Owners may first see nasal discharge, epistaxis, noisy breathing, or even changes in the physical appearance of their pet's face. The most commonly observed form of cancer in the nasal cavity in geriatric dogs is nasal adenocarcinoma, while the most common form of nasal planum tumor is the mast cell tumor. Diagnosis is made through x‐rays or computed tomography, biopsy, and histopathology of the affected nasal tissue. If an underlying issues is present (tumor, infection, inflammation, other), addressing and ameliorating the problem would be the only way to improve the pet's decreased olfactory ability.
