I don't agree that you need to dry off an area that has been treated
with CS.  You can cover a wound with a bandage or pad and keep it
constantly soaked with CS.  This makes it heal better and quicker.  I
did it for a wound on the head where I ran into a door...  Worked great!
As long as the CS is wet it will be active.
 
If it is not CS, then yes, dry it off.

        While it may get rid of bacteria, fungus and yeast it will not
dry the area, it will still be moist.  If you saturate the area for a
few minutes with your CS you will also want to dry the area afterwards.
Constanly damp skin is usually not healthy skin.  If there is an off
odor to the damp area there are things growing there you don't want. Why
is it constantly moist there?  Is his nose leather touching the fur
where the fold is?  
         
        Good news is your CS will not hurt his eyes.  
         
        You might want to join a breed specific group, search
Yahoogroups to find one, and see if they have solutions for keeping a
Japanese Chin's skin folds dry.  I'm sure they would have suggestions
that I can't think of.

                So do you think it will do the job and get rid of the
bacteria and dry up moisture there????  Gale

                                I have a Japanese Chin (they have no
length of nose).  He always has a moist spot right in that crevasse.  I
think bacteria live there.  Can I put the CS on that area and not hurt
the eyes if some gets in them????  I am not really familiar with working
with CS but have it and know it to be  really good!!!!  Gale from
Poulsbo, Wa.
