Best Dog Paw Cleaner Review-How To Easily Clean Your Dog’s Paws

Muddy paws in your house or your car can now be a thing of the past. For years, I have used a towel trying to get my dogs’ paws clean and dry, and it never seems to do a great job.

A dog paw cleaner or a dog paw washer is the easy way to get those muddy paws clean and it is much easier than using a towel. A dog paw cleaner is a bit different from a dog paw washer.

A dog paw cleaner is a type of cloth specially designed for cleaning your dog’s paws. A dog paw washer is a small device designed to make it easy to clean your dog’s paws by you sticking your dog’s paws into some type of reservoir with water that will have soft bristles to help remove dirt from your dog’s paws.

You can add a gentle soap or just use clean water. You will either spin the container or move your dog’s paws over the bristles.

Using a Dog Paw Washer might take some getting used to for your dog, but it shouldn’t be overly difficult if your dog doesn’t mind you handling their paws.

Spotless Paw Dog Paw Cleaning Glove – Dog Paw Cleaner

This would be considered a dog paw cleaner, and one that I highly recommend. Not only will it work great for cleaning your dog’s paws, it also works great for drying or cleaning your dog’s entire body.

The Spotless Cleaning Glove is made with microfiber that attracts dirt like a magnet. It holds 600% of its weight in dirt, grime and water. It is soft, super absorbent that has a unique six fingered glove, designed for use with either the right or left hand and either side can be used.

The microfiber’s special absorbent qualities allow the glove to be used over and over before requiring washing.

• Wipes paws clean without water
• Dries quickly
• Works with all sizes and breeds of dogs

Fingers work for getting in between toes. The microfiber helps dirt get broken down and captured in the microfibers. Cotton fibers that are in most cloths will smear mud. They also stay wet and breeds mold and mildew. They are bulky and difficult to handle and need to be washed after one use.

The high performance fabric used in the Spotless Paw is a blend of 80% polyester and 20% polyamide. The weave

and split of the fibers are woven and split in such a way that creates microscopic hooks that attract and hold dirt, water and mud like a magnet.

Microfiber is environmentally safe and hypoallergenic.

It comes with a convenient door loop with a buckle that you can hang from a doorknob or handle or attach it to your belt loop.

Machine washable and dryer safe. Do not use bleach or fabric softener. Fabric softener clogs the fibers, making the glove less effective.

Made in theUnited States.

I would recommend getting 2 gloves. If you need to wipe down your dog’s body, you can do it in half the time with both hands working. If you don’t use 2 at once, you will always have one clean and ready to use.
