Pavements, gravel, cold weather and central heating are all hard on paw pads. Pet Head Paw Butter is a nourishing balm for paws and noses, and this version carries a hint of Pet Head's coconut fragrance.

It is packed with shea and mango butter, which are deeply moisturising for even very dry, cracked pads and noses. Oatmeal extract soothes, while coconut oil, vegetable protein and aloe vera help soften and calm the skin.

How to use: gently massage a little into the paws or nose whenever they need extra care. Pet Head suggest using it at least once a week if your dog has cracked or irritated paws, and after walks on rough surfaces such as concrete or stones. Pet Head say it is suitable for cats as well as dogs.

Pet Head products are vegan and cruelty free, made without parabens or dyes, and gluten and nut free.

Worth knowing: apply it when your pet can settle for a few minutes, such as before a nap, so it soaks in rather than ending up on the floor. Deep cracks, cuts or limping need a vet, not a balm.
