If your pet has allergies, or if you're worried about the contents of paw wax, contact a veterinary professional to discuss your concerns. They'll be able to advise if it's safe to use on your pet. Talk to your vet before applying paw wax if you're worried about allergic reactions and possible side effects. Vets Preferred Dog Paw Balm is one of the popular paw wax brands available. Pets have survived for centuries without paw wax, so your pet doesn't necessarily need it. Paw wax products are generally safe to use on your pet. Paw wax is made from non-toxic, all-natural ingredients that won't irritate your pet's skin or cause them any harm.

Caroline suggests considering using a paw balm or wax to create a protective barrier on your dog’s paw pads before going outside. Caroline and the team at STAR Vet Clinic recommend that a little extra care can go a long way in keeping your furry companion healthy and happy. According to our vet Caroline Ward, the most immediate risk for dogs is the irritation road salt can cause to their paws. When dogs walk on salted surfaces, their paw pads can become cracked, dry, and painful. Road salt is a desiccant, which means it can absorb moisture from a dog’s paws and skin. Extended contact with road salt can lead to dehydration and skin issues. Protective Paw Balm is one of the measures to prevent road salt related issues.

Paw balm is not essential, especially if your dog has never had any issues with their paws. However, it can be useful in certain situations. Your vet may recommend paw balm, alongside medical treatment, for certain skin conditions. If you notice that your dog’s paws are looking a little dry, then trying some paw balm may help. Paw balm can be especially helpful in the winter, or for elderly dogs. If you notice any changes in your dog’s paw pads, you should have them checked by your vet. Ask your vet if you have any concerns about your dog’s pads.
