Brussels Griffons, like many active dogs, can develop rough patches on their elbows from lying on hard floors. While these calluses are nature's way of protecting the skin, they don't have to be a source of discomfort. Our specially formulated elbow balm offers a natural solution to keep those pressure points soft and supple.
How It Helps Your Dog's Elbows
The balm works by forming a protective barrier while delivering deep moisture. Natural butters such as shea or cocoa butter, along with oils including coconut and olive oil, are renowned for their emollient properties. They gently soften hardened skin without harsh chemicals. With regular uses, you may notice smoother, more comfortable elbows within a week or two.
Key Benefits of Natural Ingredients
-
Deep Hydration: A blend of soothing butters and oils penetrates thick calluses to soften and moisturise from within.
-

-
Safe to Ingest: With no active ingredients, the balm is non-toxic if your dog licks it.

Unscented Formula: Ideal for sensitive noses — no artificial fragrances.
Every ingredient is ethically sourced and cosmetic grade, ensuring your dog receives only the best. The balm is manufactured in the USA under strict quality standards.
Application Tips for Best Results
Start with clean, dry elbows. Take a small amount of balm with your finger or a clean cloth. Gently massage it into the callused area using circular motions until absorbed. For optimal results, apply twice daily — once in the morning and once before bed.
If your dog has very thick calluses, apply a slightly thicker layer and leave it for a few minutes before wiping off any excess. This allows deeper penetration. Patience and consistency yield the best outcomes.

Understanding Elbow Calluses
Dogs, especially larger breeds or those who spend time on hard surfaces, often develop thickened, rough patches on their elbows. These calluses can become dry, cracked, and even painful. While they are a natural protective response, they don't have to cause discomfort. A high-quality balm can make a real difference.
Our Brussels Griffon Dog Elbow Balm is designed specifically to address these tough spots. The 100% organic, all-natural formula works to hydrate, moisturise, and condition callused skin, helping to relieve irritation and support the skin's natural healing process. It is safe enough to uses on other rough areas like hocks or paws.
