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

Yep, that would work (although the food-grade mineral oil I use isn't carcinogenic like the motor oil).

Back in the day, way back in the day also (), Jack Dempsey used to rub his face with pine tar (another derivative of pine) to toughen his face and lessen the likelihood of getting cut.
