How to protect your pets paws in winter?
Every pet owner’s most common problem is sticky dirty snow, clogged between the pads, forming lumps of ice on the fur and hair which injure the delicate skin. The solution could be shoes for dogs. However, it isn’t always possible to find a suitable option and not all pets safely tolerate walking in shoes, which are completely unnatural to them.
To make sure your pets paws are safe you can follow these simple procedures:
- Before going out wax your pet’s pads and the areas between them with Vaseline or a special cream for dogs, protecting animal paws in winter. You can also use butter, just don’t let it walk on the carpet.
- After walking, thoroughly wash your pet’s paws in warm water and gently wipe with a soft towel or cloth. It is crucial to use warm and not hot water, as it may lead to the formation of cracks in the paws.
- Carefully inspect paws for any irritation, inflammation or cuts. If you find anything, it will require an immediate treatment. Use any lubrication ointment that heals wounds. After applying the ointment to your pet’s paws put some socks on them, so your pet will not be able to lick it off.
