Simple & Effective

All Natural Paw Traction

Helping your dog move forward.

How to apply:

Depending on your dog’s size and activity level:

  • Each application should last 7 days on average
  • There are 2 to 4 applications per package

Although having the dog stand during application is ideal, some pets will respond better while lying down. Depending on your dog’s temperament, you may need another person to help either process.

Standing Application Directions


Step 1: Trim

Clip your dog’s nails, if needed as well as the hair between your dog’s pads. An inexpensive trimmer works great.

Step 2: Clean

Clean your dog’s pads with water or rubbing alcohol. Make sure the pads are completely dry before proceeding.

Step 3: Prepare the Tray

Prepare the tray by lining it completely with the blue PawFriction traction granules. Replenish the granules as needed throughout the process to ensure even application.

Step 4: Prepare the Adhesive

Simply cut the tip of the adhesive tube 1/3 way down the tip at a 45-degree angle.

Step 5: Applying the Adhesive

With the tray underneath the paw, gently bend your dog’s leg at the knee and apply a thin layer of the PawFriction adhesive to the paw pads. Focus on the areas that contact the ground, and avoid getting any in your dog’s hair.

Step 6: Applying the Granules

Immediately straighten your dog’s leg back into standing position and press the entire paw into the PawFriction tray. Lift the paw and press it down again. Hold for 30 seconds.

Step 7: Clean and Repeat

Gently brush excess PawFriction granules off your dog’s paw and repeat the process for each leg.

Step 8: Treat Time

Reward your dog’s good behavior with a treat, and store leftover granules and adhesive for your next application.
