Great Dane Boo Boo Butter

DAB! DISTRACT! DONE!

Our #1 Best Tip! Warm product before using for faster absorption. Stick tin or tube in pocket or rub in palm before application.

DABon clean affected area

DISTRACT to keep them from licking it off

DONE Then REPEAT 2-3x daily for 1-3 days or until area improves

Use as needed for follow-up

Non-toxic, no active ingredients & no harm if licked

The reason for so much info on distracting your dog is so the product will be absorbed and get its work done. It's non-toxic, of course, and causes no harm if ingested, but it needs to soak in to be effective.

Give treats before, during and after application, if needed

Try desirable treats - cheese, canned cat food, chewy dog treats

Petting and cuddling can be the best distraction-works for me

Feed an especially yummy dinner right after application

Throw a ball or go for a walk afterward

You don’t have to rub it in PERFECTLY, as the product starts to melt at body temperature

Catch ‘em napping. Dab the product on while they sleep - sneaky

Tag team ‘em. Have one person be the treat giver while you are the dabber

Allow your big dog to stand, rather than making them lie down, if that is more comfortable for you both

Follow with something positive and your dog will soon associate Boo Boo Butter application with happy times

Think of it like cutting toenails or giving meds. Sometimes we have to do what’s in our dog's best interest.

Some dogs may be in discomfort if they have chewed, scratched or gnawed at a sore spot. They may be extra protective or wary of this area.

Many dogs just do not like being controlled tightly and will try to get away. It’s not that they hate Boo Boo Butter (ouch-we hope not), but they do not like being restrained tightly.

Dogs have flight or fight as a means of protecting themselves. Taking those two best options away leaves them with making application difficult.

Some breeds like to be in charge and will not accept being held tightly. Fast application is key with those personality types.

Your big dogs know they can overpower you, but most of the time they will submit to being attended to with grace and dignity.

Boo Boo Butter is that ideal product for your dog's skin issue that needs attention, but is not an emergency.

No artificial ingredients, no synthetics, no petroleum by-products, nothing you cannot pronounce, just good stuff to support your dog's healing process.

Boo Boo Butter is an excellent alternative to antibiotic creams/balms, as we've seen so many antibiotic resistant issues around over-usage, in people and pets.

Plus, it just works. Every so often one of us (or a pet) will have something skin-related that needs help and in unision we shout, "Did you try Boo Boo Butter?"

Boo Boo Butter with a Pug label is the same recipe/product as Boo Boo Butter with a Portguese Water Dog on the label.

The labels celebrate how diverse our dog breeds are. Plus, it allows you to customize the product with your dog's breed.

Isn't it mind-blowing that in a couple of thousand years or so ago humankind tweaked the DNA of a Wolf into a Pug's ancestor?

Our wish is for you to enjoy having your dog's breed, or a breed you love, on the label and smile.

Our big dogs can get into more than their fair share of...situations. If they are excited and adrenalin is pumping, they may not even realize they have a big old scratch or rubbed a raw patch trying to dig under something.

Plus, big double or thick coated dogs have a lot to brush! They can look great one day and then just like that, they are a matted to the bone hot mess!

If you can catch a little spot early you can prevent a hot mess later. Note: I have two Great Pyrenees/Leonmberger cross girls and we're in far northern MN, so they have DENSE coats. We have to check them often to be sure of any issues. Of course, they're worth it.

Boo Boo Butter works for those scrapes and scratches that need attention, but not panic mode. Of course, Boo Boo Butter is
