by Cindy J ~ January 24th, 2010. Filed under: General Dog Health, Skin.What can I do to stop my puppies feet from stinging from road salt. I try to avoid it, but it is everywhere this time of year. It takes so little for her to react to it.

The salt really stings their paws. There are two products that I know of that will help. You can apply these products on the pads of their paws before you go out the door and it should protect them! One is called “The Original Invisible Boot” and the other is “Paw Guard”. The second one comes in a small roll on container so it is great to keep in your coat pocket in case you come across salt on your walk. Both products advertise that they are all natural products and I have used both but check the label to make sure because your puppy may lick it’s paws.

I have tried many types of dog boots for protection against salt and cold and the only ones that have worked for me are “Pawz” natural rubber, waterproof, disposable/reusable boots. They look like small balloons and they really do stay on, protect the paws and my little dog walks as if there is nothing on her feet.
