You might have found this steely, IDK, but what about this.....http://tuffoot.com/about/dog-paw-care
That stuff is pretty close in formula and i was thinking of trying it. thanks.
NP man, I'm going to try some out also.
$5 cheaper.....http://www.gundogsupply.com/7-95.html
Last time I got some of that stuff, I think it was from Fat Bill?
He turned me onto that tuf pad the first time SB.
Ok, the stuff he sent me I believe it came in a pepsi bottle?
Then I had to mix with a ratio of alcohol. Sticky sticky stuff, but it worked well.

77% alcohol? lol

70 years of selling 70% alcohol is not putting the best product possible.
You can test mine against it if you'd like; I will take that Pepsi Challenge any day 8)

A friend of mine were just talking about this yesterday. Back in the day, I mean way back in the day, his Pops had a gallon lard bucket filled with used motor oil, sulphur/sulfur and turpentine. It was to the consistency of oil based paint. We would walk the chain spots and dip each dogs foot in the bucket. All the dogs once a month and the dogs that were working a couple-three times per week.
I have never been all that sure how much it worked on the dogs but I know my boots were always water proof and my mom would freak at my clothes. It was quite the mess. Like that show Dirty Jobs. EWO
I have used both tuf pad and jacks stuff. They are good and bad to both. It's really just what you like cause both produces work.
What's the "bad" to mine?Quote:

The 70% alcohol is a joke.
Yep, that would work (although the food-grade mineral oil I use isn't carcinogenic like the motor oil).Quote:

Jack, I believe the alcohol comes from the tincture of benzoin in the tuf pad. Also to suspend the styrex and aloe. I don't think it's there to do anything other than that. I may be wrong. Tincture of benzoin has been used for a long time for toughening skin, not just in dogs. Idk how laughable that is. More tried and true actually.
In my own layman's terms, I always thought the alcohol was the vehicle to get the other ingredients to absorb, as it evaporates upon application.
70% alcohol = 70% alcohol. And it's not more proven than turpentine.Quote:

But you have the right to pick and choose what you want.
