Buddy seems to be having bother with soreness between his front pads, 3rd time in 5 months so i think it's goign to be an ongoing thing. We have cream from the vets that ive been putting on, but was wondering if it was safe to clean his paws with baby wipes after out walks?

I wouldn't. The chemicals they put in them might make the problem worse, as dogs have a different skin ph than humans.

If you want to clean his paws after a walk, just dip them in warm salty water and pat them dry with some paper towels.

That's what I do with Dempsey's paws in the spring & summer - he's allergic to grass sap, so every time they cut the grass over the park he gets sore red paws!

Hi Louise...get a clean tub and put in abit of salt and warm water and dip his paws in one at a time and hold then there for 5mins on each one and once bathed use a clean towel and dab his paws with it and everytime he goes out and comes back do them again everytime.

Salts a great healer and i've used it with with bruno many a time Smile

You can get wipes from pets at home that contain no chemicals or anything also when my dogs have gotten any cuts or sores ive found sudocrem (in very small amounts) works really well for dogs and helps them heal very quickly.
