How to Use Boo Boo Butter on Your Dog
Application is simple. Scoop a small amount of balm with your finger or a clean tool. Gently massage it onto the affected area, covering the spot lightly. For best results, apply 1–2 times daily as needed. The balm is concentrated, so a little goes a long way. Allow it to absorb before your dog licks the area—distract them with a treat or play to prevent ingestion. Always ensure the skin is clean and dry before application.
Safety and Usage Guidelines
