Yes, Sleepy Cotton products are made with safe, non-toxic ingredients. Small amounts are safe if licked. However, it&apos;s important to thoroughly wipe your dog&#x2019;s paws with a clean, dry towel after applying the gel. This not only helps remove loosened germs and debris but also keeps the paw area dry &#x2014; which is key to preventing irritation and overgrowth of unwanted microbes.
