This work well in the cold snow and ice? How often do you apply?

Yes :) It works well in the cold snow/ice/slush. Also works on feet in summer on hot pavement, sand or deck. We put it on our dogs feet in the winter a few times a week. It stays on well and with our Boston Terrier's they didn't like having boots on their paws. Also great at the beach in the hot sand. If they happened to go in the water and back out a few times we would just check to make sure their feet were still covered. In the summer we have the dogs out on our back deck but sometimes it gets to hot for their feet so we put this on them and it really works well. We also bought Snout soother as our Boston's nose gets all bumpy from a leaky nose when he gets allergies and I would recommend that as well if you were ever out looking for something that works well. Mushers is fantastic and I am glad I found it. I hope this helps.

Works fine on snow and ice. I apply it once, at the beginning of a run. I haven't had problems with snow or ice clumping in her paws or anything...but I also don't recall ever having that problem even without the musher's secret.

Bill - we have used it in cold weather with very good results (32 degrees and above), but not sure about performance in sub zero weather. Sorry we couldn't be of more help. Have you called the manufacturer for input?

yes, they work fine in winter, if blowing snow they may need brushed off, only problem I have had is humidity and extreme heat waves during sunlight interrupts signal on long distances.

Have used in the the Winter weather in MN, since Dec 2102. Has been very effective, held up to wind, snow, rain and has not faded being outside 24x7.

Not sure if you could use it to prevent. This stuff gets pretty hot when exposed to water and the effectiveness will eventually taper off. I would think even a small snow fall would activate it for a little while and then you would need to lay down more.

We haven't had any snow yet but I'm planning on reapplying in early December to freshen the scent before the snow does arrive. The scent must stay potent quite a long time because this will be only my 2nd application in the past several months, and it's continued to do the trick.

Dudes, the product description says you can apply it cold. Tony, did you ever get an answer? Have you tried applying it cold? I'm curious too. Thanks!

It did not work for me last winter. Before this winter I used a water repellent like Rain X and that has seemed to work better. The Snow and Ice repellent is good for shovels. I also spray it in the wheel wells of my car to keep slush from building up. If you do this be careful not to spray the repellents on your tires as it could make them slippery. Also, you can get this product at a lower price at Lowe's. Hope this helps.

I actually talked to the company, they said once a year is sufficient. Preferably applied in spring, but not required then. Just do not apply it during possible freezing temps or a day of heavy rain.

I live in the south so I don't know about snow. I used this product for the first time this year as a barrier around a 12"x12" garden. I reapply after a heavy rain or about every 3 weeks. I live in an area with significant deer and so far my summer and winter garden appear protected.

I am not sure since this is my first dealing with this product. I know for my dog it has worked very well. I am fairly sure that when winter comes I will have to taking it off because of the chance of it freezing.

This is my 2nd winter using this and I love it for my 2 dogs. The consistency is like vasoline and it is easy to scoop out of the jar and apply to thier pads andup in between them so that the snow does not adhere. I recommend it to anyone whose dogs are outside a lot and find that the snow balls on their feet and causes them discomfort. It also protects them against the chemicals used to melt snow on sidewalks.

It depends on temperature and frequency of activation. I'm in NY and it's' been very cold. After about 2 months the units performance became erratic. Just replaced the batteries and it's working well in the snow and fridgid temps. Keeping the dogs away.

I don't give mine heavy use. they work well for me using occasionally and as needed. Make me feel more secure on icy/snowy surfaces.

With use---especially this winter--mine does not last too long. The product is always moist even if it has lasted a couple of months and does seem to still work. I buy two at a time. I can't vouch for the technical chemical potentcy. Marlene I.

I use it outside in the snow and rain without any problems. It appears sealed, and I have not had any problems after a winter of use, but do not know that this was a recommended use....

I have only used as a pre treatment to prevent snow and ice buildup but I do know it will melt whatever you pour it on. but it is meant to cover your surface before it snows.
