How to Clean Your Dog’s Paws After a Walk
After every outdoor walk, your dog can bring home dust, mud, pollen and small debris. A simple routine helps keep floors cleaner and gives you a chance to check the paw pads.
A simple 3-step paw routine
Start with plain water or a paw washer for visible dirt. Dry thoroughly with a dedicated dog towel. If you use any cleanser or wipes, follow the product label and stop if irritation appears.
What should you check?
Look between the toes and around the pads for small stones, thorns, cracks or redness. Persistent licking, limping or visible injury should be assessed by a veterinarian.
