Bag Balm Pet Paw & Skin Balm — 8 oz Two-Pack for Dry, Cracked Paws & Noses, Lanolin + Petrolatum

Bag Balm Pet Paw & Skin Balm is a lanolin-enriched, multi-purpose salve designed to soothe and protect dry, cracked paws, noses, and rough skin on animals.

Made in Vermont from a simple, time-tested formula that dates back to 1899, this pet balm combines lanolin and moisturizing petrolatum to restore softness and form a protective barrier against environmental stressors. Free of added fragrances, colors, alcohol, parabens, and phthalates, it’s intended for everyday conditioning and spot care on dogs, cats, horses, and many other animals. The 8-ounce tubs in this two-pack provide a long-lasting supply for home or travel use.

How quickly will Bag Balm relieve dry, cracked paws and noses?

Results vary by severity, but many pet owners notice softer skin after the first application thanks to the balm’s occlusive and emollient ingredients. It helps lock in moisture immediately and supports comfort while skin gradually regains elasticity and smoothness.

• Immediate moisture sealing from petrolatum to reduce water loss
• Lanolin softens and conditions toughened skin
• Visible improvement often within days with regular use

Is Bag Balm safe for pets and what’s in the formula?

The recipe uses only a few established ingredients and avoids added fragrances, dyes, alcohol, parabens, and phthalates to minimize irritation. It’s formulated for topical use on animals; because it’s meant to be gentle, many owners apply it to paws, noses, and dry patches. Always consult your veterinarian for wounds or if your pet licks excessively.

• Lanolin to soften and condition rough skin
• Petrolatum to moisturize and create a protective barrier
• Simple, minimal ingredient list with no unnecessary additives

How should I apply Bag Balm and how often?

Apply a thin layer to clean, dry skin or paw pads. For daily maintenance, a single morning or evening application is usually sufficient; for cracked or weather-beaten areas, apply two to three times daily until skin improves. Wipe off excess if your pet tends to lick the area.

• Clean and dry the area before application
• Rub a small amount into paw pads, noses, or rough spots
• Reapply as needed for severe dryness or after outdoor exposure

Will Bag Balm work through all seasons and for which animals?

Yes—this balm is designed for year-round protection: it helps guard against winter salt and cold, and provides a soothing layer for hot, abrasive surfaces in summer. It’s suitable for a broad range of animals, including dogs, cats, horses, and other farm animals, making it a versatile addition to any pet care kit.

• Winter: protects against cracking from cold and de-icing salts
• Summer: shields pads from hot pavement and rough terrain
• Farm and stable use: effective on larger animals like horses

Who this is for: Bag Balm is aimed at pet owners, farmers, and caretakers who prefer a simple, proven topical treatment to soothe and protect animal skin and paws. If you want a fragrance-free, long-lasting salve made with minimal ingredients and a long heritage, this two-pack of 8-ounce tubs gives you enough product for frequent use at home, in your vehicle, or at the barn. For persistent wounds, infections, or unusual symptoms, seek veterinary advice before continuing topical care.
