i use hemlock bark to toughen my dogs feet, i havs flat pans 2 feet by 2 feet and they have to stand in it to eat, or place pans where they travel the most.-- taxidermist used hemlock to tan hides back in the earley days because it had tanick acide and turned hide into leather --- nelson cole, web www.ihunt4u.net

I use coppertox herd about it on here from Ike it's seems to work great I started using it before I ever had a problem an haven't had one yet. But I think some dogs just have bad feet no matter what.
