Question 1

This work well in the cold snow and ice? How often do you apply?

Accepted Answer

Yes - Musher’s Secret creates a barrier that protects your dog’s paws not only during the cold winter but also throughout different seasons. Our wax works like an invisible boot to protect your pup’s paws, while also strengthening and moisturizing their pads and preventing paws from drying and cracking. For year round use apply a thin layer 2-3 times a week and rub in. It will absorb in a few moments, once it has absorbed it will not come off on floors, carpeting or clothing. In snowy conditions, additional applications may be necessary.

Question 2

does it help with traction on wood and tile floors?

Accepted Answer

This is what did help my Mary... I had to replace them often... you have to use  care when putting them on and taking them off as to not damage the pads and may need a balm due to these but they allowed Mary to have traction and be able to walk and stand up. There are different sizes and many brands. This brand I found about the best.

Question 3

Is this product easy to wash off once you return home from your walk.  I don't want it getting on my floors or carpeting.  Thank you!

Accepted Answer

You cannot wash it off easily because there is so much wax in it, but you can blot off with a tissue as soon as you apply it. Then feel to be sure there isn't a blob of it between the toes. It wears off a lot by the end of a 15-20 minute walk. You might want to wipe with a damp paper towl when you come in, as the mud and salt still stick to the paws--they just don't hurt the dog's skin.

Question 4

Do dogs try to lick it off; that's what mine would do I'm afraid, no?

Accepted Answer

Neither of my dogs try to lick it off.  One is a lab, the other a labradoodle.  It's been so cold here in Maine that we've started using "Hott Doggers- Boots for Dogs."  They're great in snow and on salty sidewalks.  I strap them on tightly and rarely have a problem.  My dogs don't lift their paws like they used to when it is very cold out.  Highly recommend.
