Trail Paw Wax for Dog Hiking, Rocks, Trails & Rough Terrain

Trust this stuff! We have tried so many dog shoes that fall off, break or just make a goofy walk. It can't stop bruising but absolutely protects the pads from cut up or damages of any kind. Highly impressed and recommend!

First time using it on our dogs paws on a 5 days backpacking trip. I was very impressed with how well this worked for our dogs paws. We did a 16 mile day a year ago and our dogs paws were ripped up from rocks, pairing the wax with dog booties saved our German shepard paws on our 14 mile average days on the backpacking trip we just did. So glad we found this wax and recommended it for any hikers!

Kept my pups paws safe through old rail trails covered in gravel.

I think the quality of the wax itself is pretty good! It does take a little bit to dry, but my dog is particularly restless. I will say I use some on her nose and it seemed to help.

Came in handy when we went hiking in the mountains. Paws were hydrated and protected.

I didn't know something like this existed, and I was pretty skeptical about how effective it is at protecting my dog's paws. On our recent hiking trip, the trail was very rocky and slippery, so I didn't want to put boots on her to affect her traction. I applied the wax before leaving the house and let it set in for the 30 min drive to our destination. I had completely forgotten about it until we got back. As I was rinsing my dog's paws off, I noticed that her pads felt SO soft. Normally, they are rough to begin with, but this time around, her paws are still very moist and soft to the touch. The trail wax has a light, pleasant scent, and was buttery smooth, so it went on easily. My dog didn't seem bothered by it, unlike some other palm balms she's tried, and it also washed off easily. If you are on the fence, just get it.

Look, I really like the idea of this Dog Paw Trail Wax from Rhino Wax, but it's not the best delivery system, which makes it a pain to use... and so I usually don't. The container is like a giant lip balm, turn the bottom and the wax balm rises up. The problem is that at even 65 degrees, the wax is hard enough that it doesn't want to just rub onto my dog's paw pads. So, then I have to use a finger or two to get some wax off the top to then rub into my doggo's paws. Maybe that's what Rhino Wax intended? The instructions do say to massage the wax into the paw... but if that's the case, why not put the wax into a more streamlined container, and make it easier to scoop out the wax? I don't know. All of that said, my dog didn't even try to lick her paws after the wax was applied, but she did lick the tile floor a little where she had stepped, so I think she found where some of the wax had come off, so I think she enjoyed the flavor. lol

This stuff is GREAT! i walk my two pups on hikes and on the street a lot. I apply before every outing and it helps so much with protecting their feet from the rough road and rough terrain. Def would recommend to any other dog parent.
