Hey GS, I had that concern with my labs and my fathers GS. We end up using this stuff called EMT gel. We apply it liberaly to the pad, let it dry to a tacky stage then tromp their paw down in a sandy spot. We then take spts tape to wrap their joints and that pad that has no reason being 3 inches from their foot. This stuff lasts pretty much all day and really works well for us.
