How do I use the Paw Gel Cleanser?Updated 2 months ago
We're happy to walk you through the simple steps for using our Paw Gel Cleanser. Consistent and proper use is key to ensuring your pup's paws stay clean, healthy, and irritation-free!
📝 Directions for Use
We recommend using our Paw Gel Cleanser about once or twice a day —oftentimes, our customers have much better luck when they follow these instructions!
Prep Time: After a walk, grab a soft, dry towel and your Sleepy Cotton Paw Gel Cleanser.
Application: Squeeze the gel onto your fingertips (or hand) and gently massage it into your dog's paws.
Thorough Massage: Thoroughly massage the paws, focusing especially on the areas between the paw pads. This area is where bacteria and yeast tend to thrive.
Wipe Clean: Wipe away the excess gel using the towel. Be sure to thoroughly clean between the pads to remove any remaining bacteria and yeast. (If any gel is left behind, extra-sensitive pups may feel the difference and start licking to remove it.)
Let Dry: Allow the paws to dry completely. This step is important as it helps prevent bacteria and yeast from growing back.
✨ Important Tips
Licking Safety: Our Paw Gel Cleanser is safe for dogs to lick. It's formulated with naturally derived ingredients, and the surfactant base is made from coconut, which is gentle and mild.
Frequency: We recommend using the Paw Gel Cleanser once or twice daily, depending on how often your dog goes outside. Think of it like washing your hands with soap—it's effective, but overuse can cause dryness, so balance is key.
Result Time: With consistent use and proper drying, most pups begin to show improvement within 1–2 weeks.
