Dog Elbow Balm

Dogz and Dogz Dog Elbow Balm deeply moisturizes and nourishes the skin, without beeing greasy.

No matter how many cushy dog beds you provide, some pups simply prefer to lounge on the cool surface of hard flooring. Frequent, prolonged pressure from laying on solid surfaces can eventually lead to elbow calluses. Calluses usually develop on the elbows, but can also occur on the hips, hocks and along the sides of the legs. These patches of thickened skin are most common in short-coated, large-breed pups like Labs, Boxers and Mastiffs.

As soon as you begin to notice the first signs of hair loss and dry, thick skin, you should intervene to prevent them from becoming more than just a mild inconvenience. These rough, thick pressure sores are more than just unsightly, they can crack, bleed, ulcerate and even become infected.  Read more about elbow calluses here

Our Dog Elbow balm is designed to nourish, soften and help the calluses be less restrictive, tight and at risk of tearing. All ingredients are soothing and moisturizing. Already inflamed skin should be presented to the veterinarian.

HOW TO APPLY

Apply our Dog Elbow Balm 2 x a day.

Distract your dog after applying the balm.  We recommend to apply the balm right before leaving for a walk with your best friend, so he is too excited to take care of his elbows and the nourishing and healing ingredients of the ointment have time to melt into the callus.

Like all our dog balms, the Elbow Balm is safe if eaten.

DOGZ and DOGZ Dog Elbow Balm is suitable for all dog breeds and especially for our beloved senior dogs.
