What to put on dog paw burns from pavement? Is olive oil safe?

Question

A few days ago my dog lucky got minor burns on all 4 of his paws on the pavement he doesn't have any trouble walking or playing it seems to not bother him I was wondering what If can use olive oil to put on his paws to bring moisture back into them since they seem dry? or what else can I use to help heal his paws and get them back to normal and heal faster? Pet's info: Dog | Mixed Breed Small (up to 22lb) | Male | neutered | 12 lbs

I would not use olive oil on Lucky's paw, that will not bring moisture back into them. He will also just lick the oil off, and that can make him sick in that it could cause pancreatitis. Musher's Secret is a paw protection wax, and that would be good to use on his paws to help protect them. I hope this helps!
