If your dogs are otherwise healthy this might just be something you mention on their next vet appointment, otherwise you might want to find the reason for the flakiness.

Some dogs will die, live with no complications, or live with complications. Distemper can cause discoloration in the nose, it can also cause what is called "hard pad" in dogs who have recovered. These are both non life threatening symptoms. The real concerns would be if your dog has developed any damage to the nervous symptoms causes things like seizures or trouble with motor functions, it seems like the changes your dog has experienced are not harmful to his health. If you notice other symptoms over time it would be good to be proactive about seeking medical treatment. Individual cases of dogs surviving distemper will have different recovery stories.

If the crusting on his nose is not just dirt buildup that can be an issue of health. Are his ears full of dark build up? If so he may have an ear or yeast infection. This can be easily taken care of by getting ear wash and drops from your veterinarian. Usually a yeast infection will require drops rather than over the counter ear cleaner they sell at pet stores. It seems to me you're doing a great job, it's always wonderful to hear from others who care about animals the right way. Best wishes.

If you think these are symptoms from being overweight putting him on a restricted diet is the best options for him. Dog can get depressed, if he's is acting this way he may benefits with weight at depression by getting a walk in some nice sunlight. Just as humans needs sunlight for healthy bones and to ward off depression, so do dogs.

Try washing your dog with hypoallergenic shampoo and keeping him out of heavy wooded or grassy areas. If you're seeing a build up of dark wax it could mean your dog has a yeast infection in which case they will require some medicated ear drops to kill the infection. If you're not seeing this buildup your dog could still have an ear infection. A common reason for dry nose and itchy ears are simply allergies.
