| When this would happen during the dry winter months to my Molly Muffins, we would put on a thin coat of A & D ointment. Yes it is greasy, but it did the trick! It is also the best thing for my cuticles in the winter!

| i am always afraid of human products because the dogs love licking themselves, so it's perfectly safe right? thanks again, just worried about those products. =)

| I use bag balm on Mikaylas when hers got so dry after nursing her litter. It worked pretty good to soften then up. |
