Dexas Mudpuppy Paw Plunger

The Dexas MudBuster is the product that made the category. Add water, insert the paw, twist gently — the dense silicone bristles reach between toes and scrub the paw pad surface in a way that neither wipes nor sprays replicate. At $13 it's the most affordable effective paw cleaner for serious mud. The plunger works for up to large breed sizes (the large version handles paws up to 3.5" diameter). The silicone is durable — it's been in continuous production for years without meaningful design changes because the core mechanism works. Main limitation is that dogs need habituation to accept a hand and paw going into an enclosed container.
