Paw Care: Protecting Pads from Hot Pavement and Rough Floors
Your pet's paws are tough, but they aren't shoes.
In Dhaka, pets face two main paw hazards:
-
Summer Heat: Asphalt roads absorb heat. If it is 30°C outside, the road can be 50°C. This burns their pads.
-
Rough Surfaces: Concrete rooftops and rough tiles dry out the pads, causing them to crack and bleed.
The Solution: Paw Balm
Think of pet paw balm as a heavy-duty moisturizer and wax shield combined.
How to Use It
-
Prevention: Apply a thin layer before a walk. The wax creates a barrier against heat and salt.
-
Healing: Apply a thick layer after a walk or before bed to soothe dry, cracked skin.
The 5-Second Rule
Before walking your dog in summer, place the back of your hand on the pavement for 5 seconds. If it is too hot for your hand, it is too hot for their paws.
Summary
Healthy paws mean happy walks. Keep them moisturized!
