Avoid these ingredients at all costs, because they’re toxic to dogs:
- Zinc oxide: commonly included in sunscreen and diaper rash creams
- Diclofenac: used to treat joint pain
- Calcipotriene: used to treat psoriasis
Other ingredients in topical creams or skin treatments can be dangerous to dogs if ingested. Before using any cream, salve, or gel containing these ingredients with your dog, be sure to consult with your vet:
- Hydrocortisone: on its own or in calamine lotion
- Lidocaine: numbing agent

The lightly cocoa butter scented formula is packed with soothing botanical oils and butters that seep into skin at different levels, locking in healthymoisture for longer periods of time.
Our line of all-natural paw lotion bars feature the best pet-safe botanical food grade oils and butters, carefully mixed to provide your pup with a soothing boost of moisture to dry, itchy, sensitive areas in need of relief. We've been using these amazing lotion bars on our own German Shepherd with fantastic results!
