How do I fix my dogs pads?

Post by ohiohunter »

My dog's pads seem very dry. They are splitting and fraying. Some of them look like old leather.

I am going through this now and the vet has me soakin his feet in warm water w/ betadine soap mixed in ,he said to soak it for 5 min. 3 times a day and to keep the kennel as clean as possible

I've used both EMT gel and Pad Kote and they both work well. Only problem is they don't last long.

Leah,
Take care on the use of it for if it is a cut where there is lots of hair if applied to the hair the hair will come out, it grows back of course, but the hair does come out.
