Take your dog in to see your Veterinarian immediately. The Vet will sedate your dog to remove these quills as the quills have barbs on the ends that twist to the side so very painful to the dog to take them out, without any sort of sedation. If you have to do it yourself, then muzzle your dog with something like a long piece of gauze tied around his muzzle. Then get yourself some pliers and start pulling them out. But just keep in mind that this is going to be extremely painful for your dog and is really should be done by a Vet who can sedate your dog and then afterwards put him or her on antibiotics to make sure an infection does not set in.

Why is your dog's nose so dry?

Usually when a dog has a moist noise it means they are healthy. If he has a dry nose that might mean he is unhealthy or sick. But this is not in all cases. Dog's noses are wet because of the tear glandes that empty from their nose, so don't freak out if it is dry. If the weather is dry than your dog's nose may be dry. It could be that. If you are still worried you should consult your vet. He/she is your best answer.

What does it mean when a dogs nose is warm?

If a dog has a warm or a wet nose, that does not necessarily mean that it is sick. This is a common fallacy. Many people believe that a dog's nose should always be cold and wet. However, a dog's nose does not always have to be cold and wet. After resting, sleeping, or just lying around the house being lazy all day, a dog's nose is often warm and dry. This is especially true if the dog has not recently licked or used his nose for anything. If the dog's nose is constantly warm and dry, this may indicate that something may not be right with its nose and you should consider taking the dog into a vet for evaluation. A vet will be able to determine if the dog's warm dry nose is normal or not. Generally, a dog with a warm, dry nose is not a sick dog.
