Q. Can they lick it?
A. Yes. It is non-toxic. After you massage the paw balm into the pads or other areas it will be ok if they lick it afterwards. The pads should absorb most of the balm after a good massage.
Q. Will it stain my furniture?
A. Since the balm is oil based, we suggest to apply it at bedtime, when they are ready to call it a night. Second option is to apply paw balm when they are outside. This way any excess will be taken away by the grass or ground. Third option would be the use a towel to wipe away any excess after you massage the balm really well into their pads.
