Even in warmer climates dogs can be attacked by wolves, coyotes or other animals and can be killed. I like the socks idea and I bet your dog made a good impression on others with his new socks! The salt and chemicals used on roads these days can irriate skin and when the dog licks this stuff off, it can make them sick. If this is the case it is advised to wash the paws thoroughly with soap and water, dry them and use aloe vera gel or olive oil that can keep the pads soft. Thanks again. Hi Denise:

My one dog used to get snow packed in his paws, particularly when he aged. I finally started putting socks on his feet when he went out. He made quite the fashion statement but his paws were not rough or chapped after that. Its amazing how many people leave their pets out in the cold.
