Ingredient Safety FAQ
Musty Paws contains Sweet Almond Oil, Jojoba Oil, Coconut Oil, Horopito Leaf Extract, Tocopherol (Vitamin E), Mānuka Branch/Leaf Oil, Sunflower Seed Oil, and Calendula Flower Extract.
Yes. Musty Paws is formulated with gentle botanical ingredients suitable for daily topical use. Apply externally to paw pads and avoid contact with the eyes.
Mānuka Oil is a premium New Zealand botanical rich in naturally occurring triketones — compounds that have been studied for their skin-supporting properties. It is carefully selected as part of our botanical formulation for sensitive dog paws and skin.
Horopito is a rare New Zealand botanical found in only one region of the country. Its key active compound, Polygodial, has been studied in scientific research for its antifungal properties. It is one of the defining ingredients that makes Musty Paws genuinely distinctive.
Carrier oils help distribute botanical ingredients evenly across the skin while providing conditioning and nourishing properties. Each carrier oil in Musty Paws — including Jojoba, Coconut, Sweet Almond, and Sunflower — is selected for its specific skin-supporting profile.
An oil formula spreads easily across paw pads and between toes, absorbing efficiently without leaving a heavy or greasy residue. This makes it more effective for reaching moisture-prone areas where balms can be harder to apply.
No. Musty Paws contains no artificial fragrances. Any natural scent comes from the pure botanical oils in the formula, making it suitable for dogs with sensitive skin.
No. Musty Paws is completely steroid-free. It is a natural, plant-based formula.
No. Musty Paws contains no antibiotics. The formula relies entirely on the natural properties of its botanical ingredients.
Yes. Musty Paws is made exclusively with natural, plant-based botanical oils and extracts. There are no synthetic chemicals, artificial preservatives, or harsh additives.
