It’s all about your Dogs Paws today. Just like our hands get dry and crackly in the Winter Months (and we don’t walk on them : ) so does your furry friends! So why not take care of those doggy pads the right way with a Nutrient Rich Dog Balm that will make those little tootsies soft and make your pup feel so much better. This balm is fabulous for the Summer also, sometimes walking on that heated pavement can be harsh and treating the paws before and after is a fabulous thing. It’s always a great thing to try to avoid hot pavements whenever possible. There are many breeds of dogs that also need a balm for their snouts…especially Pugs…Bulldogs and all of those that have the short wrinkly snout. This balm can be used for snouts as well as paws so it does double duty. A really good Dog Balm can be a bit expensive so why not make a batch yourself…it is so incredibly easy and it works like a charm! We even have a Free Printable Label to top it off with. It’s great for gifts or just to share with furry friends you adore and love. So come on in and check out the crazy easy DIY Dog Balm.

You won’t believe how simple this Dog Balm is to make. You will use it often. Not only does it help protect the doggie from icy/snowy conditions it helps with hot pavements…gravel paths…outdoor elements especially if your pup loves to hike with you and any other tough terrain your pup ventures on.

The balm is so easy to apply. Just take a little dab with your finger and then rub it into the pad just like you would rub lotion into your hands. Let it dry for a minute and then the paw has a protection that will help keep the paws nice and healthy. Georgia and Alie love their balm and it gives them puppy paws!

I have to tell you …if your pup happens to have a cut on their paw please do not apply the balm until it is healed : )

Now all that is left to do is whip up a batch and believe it or not it is going to take you probably about 10 minutes all together!

When you are finished just allow to cool…print your label out …place it on the top of a 4 ounce mini Mason Jar and you are done! We also provide a large Mason Jar Label because if you have a large doggy using the large wide mouth jars is a great thing!
