The Story

A vet who got tired of petroleum.

Dr. Miranda Davis · Doctor of Veterinary Medicine, Murdoch University

Red Earth Paws was created by Dr. Miranda Davis, who earned her Doctor of Veterinary Medicine at Murdoch University in Perth — one of Australia's leading veterinary schools.

Years of clinical work in Western Australia meant treating the same problem over and over: cracked, burned, and split paw pads from red dirt, hot pavement, and rough scrub. The balms owners brought in were almost always petroleum-based — effective in the short term, but not what a vet wants to send home with a patient.

So she formulated something better, built around Australian lanolin — the same ingredient sheep farmers have used for generations to heal their own cracked hands. Tested across red dirt tracks, beach walks, and city sidewalks. Built for paws that actually go places.

My kelpie's pads were splitting every summer on the hot pavement. Two weeks of this balm and they were back to normal. I keep a tin by the door now.

I'd tried three other balms before this one. The lanolin makes a real difference — it actually absorbs instead of just sitting on top.
