A method for treating a skin condition of an animal includes identifying an animal skin treatment area having a wound, a scratch or other adverse skin condition; optionally making a determination that the treatment area is at risk for skin maceration; and, in response, applying a skin treatment comp
A method for treating a skin condition of an animal includes identifying an animal skin treatment area having a wound, a scratch or other adverse skin condition; optionally making a determination that the treatment area is at risk for skin maceration; and, in response, applying a skin treatment composition to the treatment area. In certain embodiments, the composition comprises a solid particulate material such as zinc oxide, water and a fluid base material selected from the group consisting of mineral oil, silicone oil, plant-based oil and mixtures thereof. The composition may further include additives such as lanolin, petrolatum, and paraffin, among others. In a preferred embodiment, the applying includes spraying the composition on the treatment area, for example by using an atomizer.

1. A method for treating a skin treatment area of a non-human animal having fur or hair, comprising: identifying a skin treatment area of a non-human animal having fur or hair thereon and exhibiting an adverse skin condition that causes the skin treatment area to have a greater risk, relative to a s
1. A method for treating a skin treatment area of a non-human animal having fur or hair, comprising: identifying a skin treatment area of a non-human animal having fur or hair thereon and exhibiting an adverse skin condition that causes the skin treatment area to have a greater risk, relative to a second portion of the non-human animal's skin that is not affected by the adverse skin condition, for at least one of skin maceration, exposure to ultraviolet radiation, self-inflicted injury and infection, wherein the fur or hair is on or part of the skin treatment area; andspraying onto the skin treatment area, without removing the fur or hair, a composition comprising a solid particulate material suspended in a fluid base material comprising a silicone oil to form a hydrophobic moisture barrier on the skin treatment area, the composition having a viscosity of from about 200 to about 700 centipoise, measured at room temperature using a Brookfield viscometer. 2. The method according to claim 1, wherein the solid particulate material comprises particulate zinc oxide. 3. The method according to claim 2, wherein the particulate zinc oxide has an average particle size of from about 0.01 microns to about 10 microns. 4. The method according to claim 1, wherein the composition further comprises from about 5 percent to about 30 percent by weight of at least one skin conditioning agent relative to the weight of the composition. 5. The method according to claim 4 wherein the skin conditioning agent comprises lanolin. 6. The method according to claim 1, wherein the composition further comprises from about 1 percent to about 10 percent by weight of at least one viscosity-increasing material selected from the group consisting of talc, paraffin wax and microcrystalline wax relative to the weight of the composition. 7. The method of claim 1, wherein the spraying includes atomizing the composition with one of an atomizing spray dispenser, an atomizing pump spray dispenser, a piston-style dispenser; and an aerosol dispenser. 8. The method according to claim 1, wherein the composition comprises: from about 20 percent to about 30 percent by weight of the solid particulate material relative to the weight of the composition; wherein the solid particulate material is zinc oxide,from about 30 percent to about 60 percent by weight of the fluid base material relative to the weight of the composition, wherein the fluid base material comprises mineral oil and cyclomethicone; andwherein the composition further comprises: from about 1 percent to about 16 percent by weight of lanolin relative to the weight of the composition;from about 1 percent to about 25 percent by weight of petrolatum relative to the weight of the composition; andfrom about 1 percent to about 10 percent by weight of microcrystalline wax relative to the weight of the composition. 9. The method according to claim 1, wherein the adverse skin condition is selected from a wound, a scratch, a rash, inflammation, itching, dryness and cracking. 10. The method according to claim 1, wherein the adverse skin condition is selected from an open wound and a wound that produces exudate. 11. The method according to claim 1, wherein the adverse skin condition is selected from a laceration, an abrasion, and a puncture wound. 12. The method according to claim 1, wherein the non-human animal is a mammal. 13. A method for treating a skin treatment area of a non-human animal having fur or hair, comprising: providing a treatment system comprising a dispenser and a treatment composition having a viscosity of from about 200 to about 700 centipoise, measured at room temperature using a Brookfield viscometer; wherein the dispenser comprises a container and an atomizing spray delivery mechanism affixed to the container; wherein the treatment composition comprises a solid particulate material suspended in a fluid base material comprising a silicone oil, and wherein the treatment composition is positioned in the container;identifying a skin treatment area of a non-human animal having fur or hair thereon and exhibiting signs of an adverse skin condition, wherein the fur or hair is on or part of the skin treatment area;in response to the identifying, without removing the fur or hair, passing the composition through the atomizing spray delivery mechanism to atomize the composition and to propel the atomized composition toward the skin treatment area; andleaving said composition on the skin treatment area to form a hydrophobic moisture barrier on the skin treatment area. 14. The method according to claim 13, wherein the solid particulate material comprises particulate zinc oxide. 15. The method according to claim 13, wherein the fluid base material comprises at least one of cyclomethicone and dimethicone. 16. The method according to claim 13, wherein the composition further comprises at least one skin conditioning agent. 17. The method according to claim 16 wherein the skin conditioning agent comprises lanolin. 18. The method according to claim 13, wherein the solid particulate material comprises at least one of talc, calamine and kaolin. 19. A method for treating a skin treatment area of a non-human animal having fur or hair, comprising: providing a treatment system comprising an atomizing spray dispenser and a treatment composition; wherein the dispenser comprises a container and an atomizing spray delivery mechanism affixed to the container; wherein the treatment composition comprises a solid particulate material suspended in a fluid base material comprising a silicone oil and has a viscosity of from about 200 to about 700 centipoise, measured at room temperature using a Brookfield viscometer, and wherein the composition is positioned in the container;selecting the skin treatment area of the non-human animal, wherein the fur or hair is on or part of the skin treatment area;without removing the fur or hair, passing the composition through the mechanism to atomize the composition and to propel the atomized composition toward the skin treatment area; andleaving said composition on the skin treatment area to form a hydrophobic moisture barrier on the skin treatment area. 20. The method of claim 19 wherein the non-human animal is selected from the group consisting of horse, cow, pig, sheep, dog, cat, and other pet. 21. The method of claim 19, further comprising determining that the adverse skin condition is in need of protection from an environmental factor; and wherein the composition comprises from about 10 percent to about 30 percent by weight of hydrophobized zinc oxide relative to the weight of the composition; and from about 20 percent to about 90 percent by weight of the fluid base material relative to the weight of the composition. 22. The method of claim 19, wherein the composition comprises at least one of an anti-bacterial and an anti-fungal material. 23. The method according to claim 1, wherein the composition further comprises at least one additive exhibiting a taste that is configured to be unpleasant to an animal if ingested. 24. The method according to claim 20, wherein the non-human animal is selected from the group consisting of hamster, gerbil, rabbit, guinea pig, ferret, and mouse. 25. The method according to claim 20, wherein the non-human animal is selected from the group consisting of camel, and zebra.
