how do you keep a schnauzer's feet white?

Have Your Say: I have a S&P female who loves to dig in my garden. Unfortunately I use red cedar mulch and now her feet and chin (which were once white) are brownish red. Is there any tips on how to keep the white white?

I suggest you use another mulch other than the one you are using.. or go to your pet shop and buy some Shampoo for White Dogs.. as there is usually a picture of either e White Samoyed or a West Highland Terrier on the bottle.. When my Benji and Rebel get brown feet and beards I use this Shampoo and it's surprising how white it leaves their beards and feet.. but I don't let them get that dirty even though he, and Rebel love digging.. I've bought a plastic paddling pool which I fill with sand and now they would rather get in that and dig because I bury their toys under the sand.. and the sand being clean their white bits stay white...

NOTE FROM LINDA AND MAX:
The sand pit is an excellent idea
