Do dogs try to lick it off; that's what mine would do I'm afraid, no?

Neither of my dogs try to lick it off. One is a lab, the other a labradoodle. It's been so cold here in Maine that we've started using "Hott Doggers- Boots for Dogs." They're great in snow and on salty sidewalks. I strap them on tightly and rarely have a problem. My dogs don't lift their paws like they used to when it is very cold out. Highly recommend.

Well it is a foreign thing coating on their feet so that is what I would expect. However, I rubbed it in real good and they briefly did but did not continue to do so. Make sure not to apply it on a nice rug, blanket or carpet...it does have an oily kind of texture when applied an not sure that it wouldnt stain. It takes a little bit to soak in, similiar to hand cream for us.

Mine has never tried to lick it off and the groomer that I use recommended this to me and she's big into all natural solutions she told me it wasn't a big deal if they lick it off.

One of my dogs does try to do this if I put it on too early before we go outside. Once outside she forgets it's on.

We used it on 2 labs and they left it on. Healing of paws came quickly after starting to use it.

I put it on Gidget feet prior to our outings and so far she hasn't attempt to lick it off. When we get back I have a hand towel that I rub her feet lightly as it also conditions the pads and keeps them from cracking.

I'd say yes...just be careful on not pulling it too hard or do it to close to his skin so it is not uncomfortable. I am not familiar with dogs, but I would just keep an eye and if he/she shows a bit distressed just remove, no need to make him/her uncomfortable. Hope this helps.

If it is an animal that pecks, then no, I dont believe this would work as a suitable barrier for that. //

The dog will lick it off its so good! Which may not help the healing process. Though I bet this honey can help heal wounds.

My dog did this and now she just turns away. My other dog that does not have the gentle lead is still a nut case but he is small and I can handle him. Still, I think I will get him one.We tried one on a dog with a small nose and she got out of it in a minute.

Try not to force, as its new and the dog is scared. Assure he or she its okay. Speak gently and just place on nose for a few seconds. My dog didn't like it, but I believe realized it was doing some good. She somewhat relaxed about it an allowed me to, but when she backed away, I let her. Didn't want to force her. My dog had chronic bronchitis and heart disease. She fought for three months and passed. I wish u luck.

I don't know. I bought this as a gift for my father to use on his dog. I know that the animal is suppose to lick the toothpaste off the brush. And the brush is pretty big.

I really wouldn't know for sure. I guess it would depend on whether or not your dog has a habit of putting things in his mouth to choke on. They are the size of a plastic ring on the top of a milk jug. I would say no but just like kids....some animals you have to watch close. Hope this helps �

It really depends on the size, age and breed of your dog. However, squeeze about a half inch to one inch on your finger and let the dog lick it off. If he won't take it, which is very unlikely, just put it in the side of his mouth. Nutri-Cal is amazing!!!

probably not but a dog should not be biting the owner. Maybe need some dog training?

My opinion is that if your dog is already afraid of the groomer and bites, this product will only make your dog more afraid...I have a non aggressive dog, I used this to keep her from running and barking at passerby's... it really frightened her and made her act weird and avoid me for a couple days...

Yes, and my small dog (10lb Maltese) did not like it. Get a cover/sleeve to keep it clean if you feel enough to buy and give it a try.

Sounds like your dogs are very sensitive. I would think this would scare them, but one of my dogs completely ignore it and the other runs the other way to hide. I hope this helps.

i guess maybe not too much, because if they lick those places it will get inside of them (they will swallow it ) so i guess not too much :D

I think it would make it more difficult, but I also think he/she might still be able to lick the front paw area. You would probably be better off with an Elizabethan collar which extends out below the chin.

Some dogs have a very dominant nature. Sometimes with this they will resist some of the training. Wearing gloves will help protect you from nipping and biting.

No. He doesn't mind the taste of it and they make it safe for the dogs to swallow since they plan on dogs swallowing it.
