Asphalt hits 125°F on a 77°F day.

Summer pavement, winter salt, weekend trails. Three different ways a walk wears down paw pads, and one tin that covers all three.

125°F

Burning heat

Asphalt runs 40-60°F hotter than the air. PawsBalm is a thin layer of balm between hot ground and your dog's paw pads.

−20°F

Salty streets

Road salt and ice melt chemicals crack, dry and burn paw pads. PawsBalm seals out the irritants before they cause damage.

Grit

Rough terrain

Rocky trails, gravel and rough wood wear down pads over time. PawsBalm adds a protective layer that holds up mile after mile.

Two ounces. All-season protection.

Organic beeswax holds the shield together: no goo, no grease, just a breathable, weatherproof barrier that stays put through heat, salt and rough ground.

Hot-pavement barrier

A thin layer between hot pavement and your dog's paw pads.

Salt seal

Blocks road salt and chemical ice melters from absorbing into paw pads.

Lick-safe, nose-safe

Five organic, food-grade ingredients and no essential oils. Fine if your dog licks a paw.

Pocket-size tin

Smaller than your palm. Goes in your pocket or leash bag. Filled by hand, so weights vary a little.

One minute. Every walk.

No waiting, no dripping, no greasy paws on your floors.

  1. 01

    Grab the tin

    From your pocket, your bag, or the entryway. The 2 oz container is smaller than your palm and goes everywhere you do.

  2. 02

    Rub on paws

    Pop the lid. Rub a small amount between your palm and the paw pad — a thin layer, not a glob. One pass per paw.

  3. 03

    Walk off

    The balm sets in seconds. Just walk — heat, salt, trail — covered.

Five ingredients. All organic.

Listed by weight. Every one of them costs more than the conventional version of the same thing. We buy them anyway.

Organic · Conditioner

Shea butter

Conditions and softens paw pads before and after the walk.

Organic · Carrier

Coconut oil

Carries the shea into the pad and absorbs fast — no greasy residue on your floors.

Organic · Barrier

Beeswax

Forms the breathable, weatherproof film that holds everything else in place.

Organic · Glide

Jojoba oil

A skin-conditioning oil that helps the balm glide on and work into the pad.

Organic · Gentle

Calendula

Adds gentle conditioning for dry, rough pads, and it is safe if your dog licks it.

We feed our dogs better than we feed ourselves.

Mine ate lamb and rice for a decade. So when it came time to decide what goes in the tin, the question was never what costs the least.

What stays out. No petroleum. No filler to make the tin feel heavier than it is. No fragrance to cover anything up. No essential oils.

Why that matters. A dog licks her paws. Leaving the essential oils out is the reason the lick-safe line on the label is a fact and not a hope.

Nothing in this tin is in it because it was cheap.
