A little over a week ago the roads were salted, I have heard that you should wipe your dogs paws off after they walk on it. But since the road was salted over a week ago, Snoopy has only had a walk since the salting yesterday as its been to cold to go out. Should I be wiping his paw pads off even though the roads haven't been treated since last week?
Personally I would. Even if they salted a few days ago there is most likely residue on the sidewalks and roads. I think it's better to be safe. I keep a box of baby wipes by the door for feet and, well... whatever needs to be taken care of as they come in!
I know it's not the same thing, but Ollie appeared fine after being in the Ocean. I did not think much of it at the time. But I think I'll be a bit more careful about that from now on.
