Paw pads and nose leather take more environmental punishment than any other part of a dog's skin — heat, rough surfaces, cold, salt on winter roads. This balm creates a protective barrier that prevents cracking and conditions tissue that has already been roughened. It's formulated without nut-based oils specifically because dogs lick their paws and nose, and it needs to be safe if ingested in small amounts.
HERO INGREDIENT — Fractionated Coconut Oil (MCT) Fractionated Coconut Oil is used as the primary carrier here because it is odourless, tasteless, and completely safe if ingested in small amounts — which matters enormously in a product applied to a dog's paws and nose. It penetrates the thick, leathery tissue of the paw pad to condition from within, and combined with beeswax it creates a formula that protects without leaving the kind of greasy residue that dogs find immediately irresistible to lick off.
WHAT ELSE IS IN THIS RECIPE
Organic Beeswax Pellets — forms the protective barrier layer over the conditioned surface — waterproof enough to shield against moisture and rough surfaces
Vitamin E Oil — antioxidant that extends shelf life and provides additional conditioning benefit for cracked or roughened paw skin
