Question

Is papaw ointment safe for dog?

Answer 1

yes, alot of people use it for their pets

Answer 2

i have never heard of it. What are you going to use it for?

Answer 3

It appears to be a topical natural ointment for rashes, etc.  Can't imagine it would hurt your dog if used for skin problems.  If you're still unsure, do some research on the Web and consult your vet.

Answer 4

I cant find anything that say's it toxic but then again I cant find anything that say's it's safe either.  

It is a herbal remedy for minor cuts and scrapes.  

I think it's up to you if you want to try it.

Answer 5

I recently had to get an ointment for a rash on my dogs belly between her back teats by her tail.I ask my pharmacist about anything non toxic.He recommended Formula II which is also used by diabetics.It had her rash cleared up in 5 days(it was really bad)

The only way I was able to keep her from l*****g it off was to put it on her just before our walk.Then not only did she leave it alone ,it got absorbed because of the friction of her walking.

Good luck.
