Dependent upon the type of hair/coat your dog has and how heavy the hair is between the paw pads - regular trimming here will go far to keep your dog happy on their feet. A blunt nose scissor can do the trick or clippers (Iuse a #20 blade) some dogs can't get used to the feel of clippers so my second choice are the scissors.

Booties in heavy winter with salt that is strewn all around - and in the summer pawpad cream is also usefull.

Regular nail trimming at least once monthly is also needed.
