    Reviews

    "Absolutely love this paw balm! It goes on smoothly, absorbs quickly, and doesn’t leave a greasy mess. Within a few days, my dog’s paws were noticeably softer and healthier. I really appreciate that it’s made with natural, lick-safe ingredients, so I don’t have to worry after applying it. It’s perfect for daily use and keeps paws protected and moisturized. Definitely a product I’ll keep buying!"

    Kimberly (5/5)

    "We love the product! Our dog who is a rescue was living outside so her paws are bothering her as they have been exposed to the outdoors so much. She licks them constantly. One swipe of this product and no more licking! We are putting it on her all the time and it’s GREAT! Thank you!!!"

    Linda (5/5)

    "Good on my puppy's nose & paws."

    Tracy (4/5)

    effective paw care

    "we got this to help my dog with his excessive callouses on his paw pads. It really helped to smooth them and treat them. We also use it to help protect from snow. The only reason I don't give this 5 stars is I feel it is difficult to apply the last bit of the balm before it's out - design wise, I wish it was easier to use in that sense."

    "Not Greasy!"

    Taryn (5/5)

    Great product 👌

    "I love this product and got it for my puppy to keep her pads soft and she must think it's edible because she licks it off as soon as I put it on!"

    Vicki S. (5/5)

    Appreciate

    "I wish I could ask my dog, but what I like is she doesn’t lick it…we’ll, maybe a bit from her nose… we live in temperatures of excess of 100 all summer long. We walk as early as possible in the morning, but hear the pavement doesn’t really cool off at night. I’m hoping that she’s more comfortable with this on her paws. It is making them soft and shiny and it doesn’t seem to track on my hardwoods."
