If you take your dogs for walks on the sidewalk on the winter, I'm told the heavy duty salt they spread to melt the ice and snow can mess up a dog's feet.

Yeah its bad for their pads,the upside I suppose of living in a small town is we're more or less responsible for our own sidewalks and street. If you wait for the county to send a truck,your going to be stuck in your house for quite a while. Even though its been a pretty rough winter all ready,I havent had to drop salt this year so far. And my neighborhood is pretty isolated,so since I rarely walk him past my immediate neighborhood(it teaches dogs what their patch is,and not to go off it)I dont have to worry about it much.
My biggest worries with him are the two rat dogs(if its as big as the largest rat Ive seen,its a rat dog)one isnt fixed and female,and Id hate to explain those pups(half Pomeranian,half Pit Bull,you wouldnt even be able to give them away) and the other is a Jack Russell who is a complete psychopath and routinely slips his lead. And Id hate to have this discussion,"Your dog attacked my dog,so my dog ate him" Just not good for neighborhood relations. But at this point,I think his owners would consider it a blessing,the little thing really is a total psycho.
