When winter arrives in the UK, dog walks don’t stop. Even on icy mornings and frosty evenings, dogs still need exercise. But many owners start to worry when they notice their dog lifting a paw, licking excessively, or hesitating on salted pavements.
If you are wondering how to protect dog paws in winter, you are not alone. Cold weather, ice and road salt can be tough on paws, but with the right care, winter walks can stay safe and comfortable.
Why Winter Walks Can Be Tough on Dog Paws
Frozen pavements, salted roads and rough gravel can quickly turn a fun walk into a sore-paw situation. Dry, cracked pads are uncomfortable and can even make dogs reluctant to go outside. Add slippery ice into the mix, and it’s easy to see why winter paw care for dogs matters more than any other season.
Cats and even horses aren’t immune either. Cold temperatures and abrasive surfaces can affect paws across species, which is why a simple, consistent paw care routine is so important.
