Common Signs Your Dog May Need Routine Paw Care
Constant licking
Frequent paw licking may indicate moisture, debris or general paw discomfort.
Chewing between toes
Debris and moisture between the toes can lead to repeated paw attention.
Moisture-prone skin folds
Deep paw folds can retain moisture and benefit from regular cleaning and grooming.
Paws with corn-chip odor
Corn-chip paw odor is commonly associated with naturally occurring skin microorganisms and moisture.
A consistent paw care routine helps keep paws clean, conditioned, and comfortable, supporting your dog's daily wellbeing.

MUSTY PAWS™ vs. DOG PAW BALMS
Unlike thick balms and waxy creams, MUSTY PAWS™ is lightweight botanical oil that flows naturally into paw crevices, between toes, and skin folds.
NATURAL GENTLE PAW CARE
Designed for regular grooming and maintenance.
Premium botanical care for your dog's paws
Unlike traditional dog paw balms made with heavier creams and waxes, Musty Paws™ is a lightweight botanical paw oil that flows between dog toes, paw crevices and skin folds — areas where routine paw care can be more difficult.
To the best of our knowledge, Musty Paws™ is the world's first dog paw oil to combine premium New Zealand Mānuka and Horopito botanicals in a single formulation. These distinctive botanicals naturally contain β-triketones (Mānuka) and polygodial (Horopito).
Made in small batches with carefully selected natural ingredients for quality, freshness and consistency.
