Does
my pet need dog booties - and how will I get them to
stay on?
If
you're wondering if dog booties
are really necessary, let me just tell you that many
pet owners swear by them! Let's consider why your canine
might benefit from wearing boots.
Take
a look at what dog boots were designed to do: to add
a protective layer to keep his paws safe from getting
cut, scraped or injured. Places where this may be necessary
are:
Boots
for dogs were also designed for weather and environment.
Much the same way as we feel cold when not acclimated
to the cold outdoors, so are our canine friends. Here
are a few conditions that warrant dog booties:
- When
walking in rain, snow, ice and salt
-
To protect against lawn pesticides
- To
protect from snow balling on feet
While
a dog bootie is protective for your pet, they may also
protect you and your home. Consider a pair to prevent
scratching on hardwood surfaced or around the pool.
Also, protect yourself from his claws while swimming
together, ouch!
How
do I get dog boots to stay on?
The
best dog boots are those with Velcro straps. To determine
the correct size, you will need to push down on his
foot and mark the left and right side of his foot on
paper. Measure the distance between the marks. Compare
the boot sizes. The width of the foot should be smaller
that the boot size.
