Dog paws are in contact with the ground 24/7 and if they are not cared for can easily suffer from things like blistered, torn, burnt or otherwise injured paw pads.
Paw care
Cleaning and moisturizing your dog’s paws is important all year round, but especially in winter. They will collect dirt and other debris no matter what you do, but winter months are exceptional.
Check your dog’s paw pads on a regular basis. Carefully spread the pads apart, examining the surfaces, sides, and areas between the pads.
Massage your chosen moisturizer (coconut oil, Shea butter) gently into your dog's paws & let them dry.
