3. Get your dog boots
In snowy or rainy weather, make sure to get your dog some comfy dog boots to shield its paws! Paws are not protected by furs, so they can easily get cold and even suffer from frostbite. What’s also concerning is that your puppy might lick its frosted or snow-covered paw, which may be carrying toxic chemicals found in anti-freeze, road salts, etc. So, make sure to wash your dog’s paws and pay attention to any cracking or dryness. You can care for your dog’s pads in winter by conditioning them with coconut oil, olive oil, or petroleum jelly to keep them soft and healthy!
