❄️ Winter Paw Care ❄️

Winter can be surprisingly tough on your dog’s paws. Cold pavements, road salt, grit and constant wet walks can quickly lead to dryness, soreness and cracked pads if they are not looked after properly.

A few simple habits at home really help:

🐾 Rinse paws after walks
A quick rinse with warm water helps remove salt and grit that can irritate the skin.

🐾 Dry them well
Leaving paws damp, especially between the toes, can cause soreness. A gentle towel dry makes a big difference.

🐾 Use a paw balm
Applying a nourishing balm helps keep pads soft and protected during the colder months.

🐾 Keep the fur between pads tidy
Long fur traps moisture and dirt which can lead to irritation and slipping.

🐾 Keep an eye out for changes
Excessive licking, limping or hesitation on walks can be early signs of sore paws.

We see a lot of dry, tired paws at this time of year, which is why paw care is always part of what we do at Dog & Throne. Gentle cleansing, soothing products and a little extra attention can go a long way in keeping your dog comfortable through winter.

If you ever want advice or would like to add a paw treatment to your dog’s next visit, just let us know 👑

Unpleasant breath is often one of the first signs that your dog’s oral health needs attention.

At Dog & Throne, we offer professional ultrasonic teeth cleaning to help support healthy teeth and gums in a gentle, non invasive way. The treatment is quiet, vibration free, and designed to be low stress, making it suitable for calm, cooperative dogs.

Regular dental care can help reduce plaque build up, improve breath, and support overall wellbeing, often preventing more serious issues from developing later.

If you are considering teeth cleaning for your dog, we are always happy to advise and assess suitability before treatment.

Most matts do not start where you think they do.

They form quietly, tighten over time, and are often spotted only when they are already uncomfortable for dogs.

We have shared the truth behind matting, why it matters, and how to prevent it in our latest blog.

Comfort always comes first at Dog and Throne 👑

https://dogandthrone.co.uk/blogs/f/the-truth-behind-matts-and-how-to-prevent-them

Matts are one of the most common grooming issues we see, and also one of the most misunderstood. Many owners believe matting is simply cosmetic, or something that happens overnight. In reality, matts are a welfare issue ...

Christmas walks were muddy.
Festive treats were plentiful.
And now… the blues have well and truly set in 🎄🐾

If this looks familiar, January is the perfect time for a fresh start. A professional groom will lift the mud, refresh the coat, and send your dog home clean, comfortable, and feeling like themselves again.

January appointments are now open and they do fill quickly.
Start the new year the polished way.

Book now via message, email or call, or pop into the spa ✨
