[Oagdu] Reminder of Oagdu call

[Angel]

Snow footing is what some of us constant bare footers call people who walk bare foot even in the snow.  I am an artist model by profession.  One of the art instructors with whom I worked, once called my toes "textbook toes".  She said to her students that by the time constantly shod people reach  their mid 20's, their toes are already deformed.  The saddest things to look at, I think, are elderly people in need of foot care.  Because the effects of a lifetime of shoe wearing  can bee seen in their feet.  Well, it took centuries to get the Chinese women to stop binding their feet.  The practice didn't stop legally till 1904.  Which indicates something about the stubbornness of humans.  I use to say: I wouldn't allow an animal to walk on surfaces on which I would be loathed to walk on myself as they do, and those roads are surely a problem for us with bare feet   .  Whether we be human or animal.  Perhaps things would change for our four footed friends if those putting those horrible chemicals on the streets would walk on them themselves unshod.  But, that won't ever happen.

  Angel,

  Thank you for this information. I had not heard of this product. I do have a jar of Musher’s Secret at home, but may have to try this.

  Out of curiosity, what is snow footing???

  I just thought you might like to know, there is an ointment one can purchase at pet supply shops to protect  the pads of dogs.  When taking them out on salty roads.  I read of this on my bare footers list.  Each winter we discuss the maintenance of our feet.  As we snow foot.  If the road salt and chemicals hurt our human feet, a dogs feet might be hurt as well.  When exposed to these harmful caustic chemicals.  city crues put on roads.  There is also a remedy called tuff feet. "    
  You are here:  > Dog Supplies > First-Aid, Grooming & Health > Dog Foot and Pad Care > Item 
  BEST-SELLER. Tuf-Foot from Bonaseptic Helps Protect Your
  We have been using Tuf-Foot on our dogs  "We have been using Tuf-Foot on our dogs for close to 30for close to 30 years. It's a great way to get 
  your dogs' pads in top condition before 
  hunting season. I prefer to start using it a 
  couple of weeks before I start running them.
  We apply it a couple of times a day when 
  possible.
   
  I also use it during the year as a 
  preventative. It soaks in good and can get 
  to small cuts deep in between your dogs 
  pads.
