After opening the jar and massaging some of the minty smelling cream on Shiner's paws, I couldn't resist putting some over my cuticles and knuckles. And then, I was in love.
I love the fact that I can share my dog's "beauty" products with her. Hey - it's a human-grade product so no biggie, right? Here's the ingredient list on this Peppermint Paw Cream:
- Pure Moisturizing Shea Butter
- Beeswax
- Carrier Oils
- Organic Peppermint
- Pure Essential Oils
- Organic Preservative
Sounds pretty nice, huh? And it's made in the USA. OK, truthfully I wouldn't classify this cream as a beauty product. It's winter time and our dog's paws need extra care right now. Some dogs may need extra attention to their paws year round, actually.
Shiner has some pretty rough feet, because she does lick them here and there. I was worried that putting JoJo Natural Pet Paw Cream was going to make her want to lick them even more. She didn't though. Anytime I put something on Shiner, she has to make a fuss and rub herself all over the place, but it didn't cause any further licking. Plus, this stuff is non-toxic so I don't have to worry if she did lick it off.
You can also use the cream for dry and cracked noses. My dog doesn't have this problem, but I know there are other dogs out there who do. The only concern I have with using it on a dog's nose is the odor. Dogs can smell pretty darn good, so I'm not sure what they would think of having peppermint cream applied right on their nose.
I also applied some of the paw cream on her elbows because she has some calluses on them. When I was working as a veterinary technician, people always asked how they could help elbow calluses on their dogs. I wish I would have known about this product back then to recommend.

I think I remember you mentioning that before. Shiner used to get hers all scraped up when we went to the lake all of the time.
DeleteI love the Pet Storage Beds. Very cool.
ReplyDeleteThat does sound like a great product but our Dog has long hair so it might be kind of messy to use. But it does look good. Have a wonderful day.
ReplyDeleteI thought it might be kind of greasy too, but it actually soaks in perfectly! Which is why I like using it on my own hands :)
DeleteTo share even the paw cream must be really true love :o) Thanks for a great review and if it helps to avoid calluses, then I will give it an extra paw.
ReplyDeleteWhat a fabulous and FUN review! LOVE LOVE LOVE how you admitted that you use it on yourself too! I just visited their website and wow! So many cool items!! I would love to win the cream and i would love for Cody to have this:http://jojomodernpets.com/shop/cat-hot-tin-roof-cardboard-cat-scratcher/
ReplyDeleteCody would look darling lounging on that! Thank you Caren :)
DeleteIt sounds good. I like that you gave it a soft paws up!
ReplyDeleteI love the ultraplush pet sofa! So cute and both my babies would love this. I have a cat and a dog.
ReplyDeleteThe heck with the dog, I would use it on my feet. Lol. OK I would share.
ReplyDeleteBOL! Well, actually I might try that now that you mention it haha!
DeleteIt's hard to choose one product, but my favorite probably is the pet storage bed.
ReplyDeleteLooks like a great product.
ReplyDeleteThat is darn cool when things actually work well!
ReplyDeleteLooks like a great product! Not sure about the peppermint. We use Musher's Secret/Wax and after mom rubs it on my paws she does think it makes her hands feel good! Love Dolly
ReplyDeleteLOVE the Ultraplush pet sofa bed! That would look awesome in our basement!
ReplyDeleteAhhhhhh!!! I would SO LOVE to enter this giveaway! Mika has bad callus on her elbows :(
ReplyDeleteBut I am Canadian eh?! LOL
It's funny being a Canadian and I am also starting a giveaway and it's for US residents only haha!
Figures!
Too funny you using it yourself! I would probably do the same thing!
I love peppermint!
Great review on the product as well!
((husky hugz frum da pack))
Oh Miss Ann, maybe you should've saved that extra container of cream for yourself since you love the product. BOL! I bet the Peppermint is nice and refreshing. Sounds lovely. No wonder Shiner is such a beauty.

Hehe, well it did cross my mind but we get enough doggy stuff around here! Thank you Oz :)
DeleteHi Ann, I saw your comment on WHAT REMAINDS, Lori 's blog about your loving food and thinking about doing a blog about your food and cooking. Some people seen to work pretty hard at it and others seen not to work that hard at it. Some only blog with a recipe once a month, I guess you can work as hare as you want to work at it????? !!! LOL
ReplyDeleteHey thanks for stopping by! I did actually decide to try and start a tumblr blog for any non-pet related things I felt like blogging about, including my cooking. Nothing big, just something to quiet that inside of me that's itching to blog about other stuff.
DeleteThis looks great and Cocco may not be a dog but it looks pig-friendly too!
ReplyDeleteI am sure that it is pig friendly :) The cream isn't specifically for dogs, and I think that cats could even use it too.
DeleteAHHH! The ultra plush sofa bed!! And it comes in pink!!!
ReplyDeleteThere are storage beds! That come in leopard and zebra! Mom collects cowprint stuff and I have a bit of a leopard fixation!
ReplyDeletewould luv to try some paw cream for my labs.
ReplyDeleteI love the JoJo Natural Pet Paw Cream, the JoJo Natural Pet Body Wash & Shampoo (Peppermint), and the Ultraplush Pet Sofa bed! thank you!
ReplyDeleteThanks for your visit!!! I am glad you have dicided to do another blog!!! I love food and love to cook. I make a big pot of soup every week!!! My Hubby Tom and I are on a health kick now for about 8 years and there is a world of difference in us in this last 8 years!!!! I watch cooking videos all the time!!!
ReplyDeleteLove food blogs too!!
If you'd like to visit my other blog here is the link - http://agirlforhire.tumblr.com
DeleteI have a few cooking things there, but not many so far as this one keeps me pretty busy :) I also like soup a lot and make it at least once a week. My family is pretty picky, but I have really been trying a lot of new things lately and I love cooking!
That sounds nice. When I frist started reading, I wondered if dogs would mind the mint smell, but I guess not :) Glad it's helping Shiner - and you!
ReplyDeleteHey Ann, Tell me something - is it greasy or does it soak into the paw instantly? I'm asking because I'm desperately looking for something that isn't greasy. What I'm using now can only be applied at night because I have to place little booties on their feet or else I've got a huge mess on my floors - HA! Let me know. Thanks
ReplyDeleteI think it is only a little greasy at first, but soaks in very well. Otherwise, I wouldn't want to use it on myself because I don't want to be walking around with greasy fingers!
DeleteWe love the storage beds!
ReplyDeleteGreat review...
Noodle
I love the sofa bed! I'm not sure they're big enough for Huffle but he sure would like a sofa of his own :)
ReplyDeleteI like the Zebra Print Elliot Chaise lounge.
ReplyDeleteand why not use it you self if its that good Ann,xx Rachel
ReplyDeleteSo true Speedy!
DeleteAll their grooming products look great! I'd love to try the paw cream on Kobi's dry nose and paws.
ReplyDeleteI like the Zebra Print Elliot Chaise.
ReplyDeleteI think I would like the Ultraplush pet sofa bed.
