Moisturize Paw Pads: we use a product called Mountain Salve before walks to create a protective barrier against ice and chemicals (when we are in snowy parts of the country). 2. Hydration Matters: Ensure your dog stays hydrated in the dry winter months. Bring water on walks, and for Mila I’ve been giving her 1 tablespoon of Pedialyte with her breakfast and dinner 3. Paw Care: After walks, clean your dog's paws with warm water to remove ice, salt, and chemicals. Towel dry to keep both paws and floors clean. 4. Consider Dog Boots: Invest in well-fitted dog boots to shield paws from winter hazards. Ensure a snug fit without affecting circulation, and introduce them gradually. 5. Monitor Paw Health: Regularly check your dog's paw pads for redness, cracks, or wounds. Be attentive to excessive paw licking, as it may indicate discomfort. (Then might need to see your vet)
