    This product works very well. It melts the ice right away. I might have to use a little more than regular salt but I don't have to worry about my dog's paws.

    This ice melt is safe for the animals that come into my yard. Ordering from Amazon is so convenient. I look for the product. Amazon has it. I order it. In one or two days it is delivered and set on my front step. Awesome drivers.

    4.0 out of 5 stars Works but expensive

    bought 5 of these on deep discount from a brick and mortar. was going to buy more but not going to pay the $41 price indicated (middle of winter, high demand, i get it)

    5 stars for paw friendly
    3 stars for average effectiveness

    The product works. but don't expect it to work as well as the brands that are harsher on the paws. You are going to need to use a more focused spread (application) which means you end up using more for less coverage area. You can use a spreader device like a seed spreader for larger areas but in my opinion that spreads it too thin and it is much less effective. which ultimately makes this a fairly expensive option.

    The reason this is so safe on the paws is that this is the ONLY product I found that has absolutely has no salt or chloride. The sole ingredient listed is UREA CAS #57-13-6 which according to what I have found is....(CAPITALIZATION IS BY ME AND HIGHLIGHTS WHAT I FOUND IMPORTANT)

    Urea, also known as carbamide, is an organic compound with chemical formula CO(NH2)2. This amide has two –NH2 groups joined by a carbonyl (C=O) functional group.

    Urea serves an important role in the metabolism of nitrogen-containing compounds by animals and is the main nitrogen-containing substance in the urine of mammals. It is a colorless, odorless solid, highly soluble in water, AND IS PRACTICALLY NON TOXIC (LD50 is 15 g/kg for rats).[5] Dissolved in water, it is neither acidic nor alkaline. The body uses it in many processes, most notably nitrogen excretion. The liver forms it by combining two ammonia molecules (NH3) with a carbon dioxide (CO2) molecule in the urea cycle. Urea is WIDELY USED IN FERTILIZERS AS A SOURCE OF NITROGEN and is an important raw material for the chemical industry.

    It is a "A non-corroding alternative to rock salt for road de-icing.[16] It is often the main ingredient of pet friendly salt substitutes although it is less effective than traditional rock salt or calcium chloride.[17]"

    So, bottom line, it is the safest thing on the paws I could find, but expensive and not as effective as other products. Its up to you as to what you are willing to sacrifice.

    This is super easy to spread right from the container it comes in! It also melts ice very quickly and it seems to stay around and last longer than other ice melts I've used in the past!
