Musher's Secret Dog Paw Wax 60 g (2.1 oz) - Moisturizing Dog Paw Balm that Creates an Invisible Barrier That Protects and Heals Dry Cracked Paws - All-Natural with Vitamin E and Food-Grade Ingredients

I got this for my 15lb pomerian since we are always outside. It helped a lot in the summer time when the cement around the pool was super hot. Then I tried it on his paws when it was super cold outside and there was a couple inches of snow out there. I feel like it definitely helped protect his paw pads. I am glad it comes in a wide enough jar that I can just take one paw at a time and rub in around so that it gets a good layer on there and not a big mess. It wasn't sticky it felt kind of like coconut oil. I never had to try to clean it off since it usually would rub off in the snow or wash off in the pool.

I honestly have to say this has been a life saver for me and my fur baby. I was in desperate need to find something to help him. He spent 95% of his day licking and bitting ALLLLLL DAY LONG. His paws were red and raw. He was miserable and so was I. I’ve spent so many trips to the Vet bc nothing they were telling me ever worked. We’ve gone through numerous different types of food not to mention he’s been on apoquel for years thinking it was allergies. I literally received this item yesterday and immediately used it and the quickness in the relief was unbelievable. I used it once that evening and again that night. We finally got a great nights rest. I’m so happy. Please buy this if you want to help your fur baby and yourself. It only takes a little. Rub a small amount on and in between each paw and that’s it.

Absolutely an amazingly effective product! Starts working on the very first application!

My Rottweiler “came with” some Musher’s when I adopted him. And I continue to buy it! It works great and it’s easy to apply. I’ll either lather my hands and massage it into his toe pads, or I’ll just dip his clean paws right into the container (then massage it in).He’s had dry skin in a few places too, like his elbows. It has worked great for that too! It has prevented him from getting dry, crusty elbows!The texture is much like vaseline or carmex, so it’s not really going to rub-in entirely, but it’s going to moisturize the heck out of whatever you rub it on. And it’s not going to stain clothes or carpet, from my experience.

Very happy with this product. My dog has white fur and in her senior years has developed skin sensitivities that won’t quit no matter what the vet does. She’s on hydrolyzed protein food which helps, but she still gets red belly skin with some larger welts.I massage this wax into her paws and onto her belly skin to soothe the itch. She appreciates the spa treatment! As a bonus, the smell and feel isn’t off putting to me. I do wash my hands after but it’s not icky by any means.

It works! It's soft good smelling and I'm so. Glad I have something to protect my baby. A little goes a long way!

During the winter, buy this for your dog! I did and the snow didn’t get compacted into his paws! More importantly, when I brought him inside, I dried him off and there was no mess on him or the floor from this product for. Great!

I have mixed feelings about this product.The good:- It's quite effective. My little dogs paws were getting really dry and cracked just going outside to potty in this severe east Texas heat. Musher's secret did make their paws buttery soft very quickly.- It doesn't smell bad.- It even kept them from slipping as much as they normally do when walking on my hardwood floors.The not-so-good:- My dogs are little chihuahua mixes. Little dogs tend to have more sensitive stomachs than larger dogs. After applying this several times they both started not feeling well (they must be licking it off). My younger dog now will not eat anything (he started getting a sour stomach yesterday, only eating a little of his food, and this morning he refused any breakfast at all). My older dog vomited violently and also had some diarrhea (and also stopped eating). Due to his age I took him to the emergency vet, and he suddenly has pancreatitis. I'm very strict about what food I let him have, and this product was the only new thing he had been exposed to within a timeline that could have triggered pancreatitis. So my regular vet (the day after the emergency vet trip) told me to not use this on him any more. She looked at the product and said that while it does not have any toxic ingredients, it's basically pure oil (that's why it works so well). She told me oil is fat, and fat triggers pancreatitis. His paw pads are baby soft, but not he's feeling very sick and I'm out $1000 so far. He's also developed a cough, and the vet says that he likely aspirated during vomiting, and now we're hoping that he doesn't develop aspiration pneumonia. He's on two antibiotics, and anti nausea medicine, an appetite stimulant, and had to have fluids twice at the vet now. If my other dog doesn't perk up and eat something soon, he might end up on medication too. Thankfully he hasn't had any of the severe symptoms my other dog has had, and hopefully his appetite will come back soon. This product is the only thing that is new to them both that matches up to the timing of their symptoms, and common to them both (they have separate dog food since one of them has allergies).So, if you have small dogs that may be sensitive, consider that this product is high fat. If you use it, do everything to ensure they do not lick it off. For a small dog, it doesn't take a whole lot to upset their digestive system.I decided to give this product 3 stars instead of 1. Personally, I regret using it and will not use it again. But because it did do what it said it would (their paws are baby soft) I felt it was more fair to give it three stars with a warning to other small dog owners to be extra careful using it. Cover your dogs paws with booties until it absorbs completely, or put a cone on them.
