Shoes, Boots for Injured Paws Waterproof, Set of 4 Walking Boots Paw Protectors With Adjustable Reflective Straps and Anti Slip Sole for Small Medium Large Dogs (Blue, S)

So, my elderly dog has been suffering with some pretty severe mobility issues, she's on anti inflamatories and pain killers to help her with her general well being, but she's incredibly unstable on her feet and struggles to grip to hard floors. We had resorted to covering the lower half of the house with mats and blankets to give her more grip but this still restricted her movement to those areas and wasn't an ideal solution. I bought these boots on the off chance that they might help. I was worried that wearing booties may cause her distress as she's a pretty anxious dog and has never worn anything like them before. She seems unfazed by wearing them (possibly due to the drugs spacing her out a bit), they occasionally come off but mostly only the back ones and usually after she's been laying down and fidgeting on them. The grip provided by these boots has been a MASSIVE increase of quality of life for her. Previously I had to help her onto her feet repeatedly and even carry her out to the garden but now she has so much freedom and it has greatly reduced her stress! I'm a little concerned over potential issues cropping up with prolonged use as she wears them all day and I take them off at night, but so far they have been well worth every penny spent.Too long, didn't read.Bought for an elderly dog with mobility issues, particularly on hard floors. Massive improvement in quality of life, great grip and stay on well.Pros:- Easy to put on- Great grip on the soles- Water resistant for outdoor use- Neat and tidy appearance- Reflective strapsCons- Sizes come up small (bought Large for a medium sized border collie, but an XL may have actually been a better fit.- Velcro straps, though this makes for quick and easy securing, they do get a bit grubby as the straps are very close to the ground and pick up everything. Perhaps a longer cuff that went higher up the leg would be better, though this may possibly be overcome by getting a larger size?

They really are great little boots that stay on and are quite protective. I just wish the Velcro lasted a bit longer! Bought another pair in December 2023 and the reflective strip has peeled off already. This didn’t happen with ones I’ve bought previously so a bit disappointing tbh

The media could not be loaded. My dog managed to scuff his claws down to the quick on day 2 of a week’s holiday in the Yorkshire dales. We ordered these boots and they arrived the following afternoon.Our dog is pretty used to having his paws touched, but has never worn anything on his feet before. We used the front boots only and as you can see from the video (taken on day 2 after purchase), he took to them really quickly.The size guide made sure we got the right fit and the boots seem sturdy and look super cute.We started with short walks to check they weren’t rubbing at all and by the end of the week, he’s walked around 20 miles in them both on and off lead on all types of terrain. We had one of them fall off once as we hadn’t quite fastened it properly. Other than that, they stayed on brilliantly.We have noticed that he feels the heat more wearing them, so probably not great for using as protection against hot tarmac.Overall an excellent buy which salvaged our holiday.Please note - these boots caused my dog to get loads of attention from passers by as they look so cute, so maybe not ideal for a dog that doesn’t like strangers

Looked great but didn't fit the dogs paws and kept slipping

Purchased 4.. lost 4. These simply do not stay on if your dog in any way active. My Cocker had a cut to his paw so purchased as protection while paw heals. We are fortunate to be surrounded by fields and woods.. These fields and woods have now claimed all 4 socks.. Also, why do they all have the letter L on them... Waste of money in my case..

My dog does not like the boots they don't fit her paws. Make her walk funny.

super

I had my doubts about these boots as I have a 21month old staffy who is basically a ballistic missile on legs! However, these boots stood up to an awful lot of zoomies, digging, and throwing himself through snowdrifts before he managed to shake one loose. For a normal dog walking normally, I’d imagine they would stay on no problem! For furry idiots like mine, they’re still well worth the money, you might just want to check the Velcro every so often.Great fit, great protection, and very smart looking.
