Vets do recommend paw washers, but there is no mention of this in the text.
Some dog’s feet are extremely sensitive to the cold, to the salt, and all the elements.
For extra dirty paws, you can use a dab of dog shampoo on the washcloth and make sure to wipe off thoroughly.
Washing/wiping between the toes and pads is very important: that’s where nasty stuff can accumulate.
Always separate each of the dog’s claws for proper cleaning.
If the wound is severe or appears infected, you should consult your veterinarian.
You can cover the wound with a pad, but keep in mind that these won't always stay on as your dog runs around or goes out again.
