Winter can be ruthless on our dog’s paws, from the cold snow to the de-icing chemicals on the ground. Thankfully, there are some ways that we can keep our dogs safe during these cold winter months.
Before heading out on your winter adventures, make sure your dog’s paw pads are ready for the harsh winter weather-
Settling into a routine like this during the winter months can help save time and money by preventing serious paw pad injuries.
- Clip long fur that grows between your dog’s toes, making sure the hair does not make contact with the ground. This practice will help ensure ice balls do not form and cause discomfort or trauma.
- When safely possible, avoid salted areas when walking to keep your dog away from harsh chemicals used to melt snow.
- Using a warm washcloth or warm bowl of water will help wash away any chemicals and ice balls your furry friend may have brought home.
- Apply all-natural Heal Care Ointment to clean dry paw pads after a walk to help soothe and heal any bruising, sprains, cuts, wounds, or infections.
Settling into a routine like this during the winter months can help save time and money by preventing serious paw pad injuries. Please don’t forget dogs are susceptible to frostbite and hypothermia – just like us! If you notice worrisome behavior please contact your local veterinarian or ask one of our pet experts.
How do you keep your dog’s paws safe during these winter months? Tell us below!

*Because swollen paws usually indicate an uncomfortable infection, contact your cat’s vet team immediately for treatment. X-rays may be necessary if your vet suspects a broken bone. Individual treatment for swollen paws varies depending on the cause. It may require constant nail trimming, a wound cleanse with antibiotics or a splint.

We've known some huskies who've decedent from the north, who would rather lounge by a pool on a sunny day than put a toe (or paw) in the snow.

Dog Paw Pad Ointment for Burn Support
Paw pad injuries due to over-exercise are common injuries for active pups, especially on hot summer days. Running back and forth on rough surfaces like concrete, pavement, or gravel may cause tenderness, blisters, burns, and possible peeling in the pad skin. As a rule of thumb, if the surface is too hot to put the back of your hand onto it, then it isn't safe for your little one to be walking on it either. Dog paw pads are pretty tough, but they aren't meant for running on such hard surfaces for long periods of time. Don't feel bad if your fluffy friend has a paw pad injury and you didn’t notice right away because there may not be any symptoms until they are settling down at home later. Just like summer, winter can present some risks as well. It is easy for your pup's paw pads to get dehydrated, dry or cracked with dry, cold weather. The iconic blue/green salt that is sprinkled onto sideways and walkways can definitely cause ouchies in your furkiddo's paws. To avoid paw pad injuries, consider protective accessories like booties or shoes for your furbaby. Shorter walks, limiting time on hot surfaces and using a topical ointment for dog paws are other ways to prevent paw pad injuries.
How NHV’s Dog Paw Ointment Supports Paw Pad Injuries and More
Paw pad injuries can be minor scratches but sometimes the pads are so badly damaged that the surface of the skin begins to blister and peel away from the foot. These injuries can take quite a while to heal and cause a lot of pain and discomfort for your furkiddo. For more severe injuries, vet-prescribed antibiotics may be required. For less severe burns and scrapes, a topical ointment for dog paws like NHV Heal Care can help soothe inflamed skin and help decrease the risk of infection - your pup's paws aren't always the cleanest so they can be at a higher risk for a bacterial or fungal (yeast) infection.
Heal care for dogs contains ingredients like Arnica and St. John's Wort which are beneficial for a variety of issues from burnt paw pads to achy joints. Arnica is known for its ability to help sprains and joint discomfort by dilating blood vessels, increasing circulation to the affected area and enhancing recovery. St. John’s Wort is a cooling herb that has traditionally been used for reducing inflammation and promoting healing from injuries such as burns, bruises, sores, cramps, sprains and discomfort caused by nerve damage.
