One part of our pets we often neglect are their paws. Here are the steps you need to keep your pets paws healthy. 

1. First you need to get some supplies - shampoo, nail clippers, styptic powders, antibacterial soap, and tweezers
2. Start by trimming your pets nails. A dremmel tool is a great way to trim them with less risk of injuring the pet. 
3. Check between their tows for stickers, thorns, foxtails, etc. They can be deeply embedded in your pets foot. 
4. Remove any irritants with tweezers. 
5. Check the paw pads for any cuts. Small cuts can be cared for with antibacterial soup, similar to how you would deal with a small cut. A large cut or a cut that is bleeding excessively should be taken seriously and you should contact your vet immediately.
