My dog started limping the other day so I looked at his paw and found some cracks (Like dry skin cracks). Is there any ointment I can put on his paws to help this problem?

I believe neosporin would be okay for it. If you call your vet they will tell youthe best method.
One thing I do is 2 times a week I put vaseline on Harley's pads and nails to keep them moisturized. If the pads aren't cracked to badly, you can probably just use this and it will heal. This is just fo rminor cracking, if they are bleeding, you should talk to the vet. Sorry I wasn't much help.

Bag Balm is supposed to be really good for cracked, dry paw pads.
