Pawz Waterproof Dog Boots, 12 count

I really wanted these to work. Unfortunately they are just tight balloons that would take more than one person to put on. My pups paw measure and the actual size image on the package match, but the opening won’t fit over her paw. Perhaps with two people we could get them in there, but would probably be tight on her. I have a >5lbs Pomeranian and got the XXS for scale. I may try actual balloons that are larger. I’d suggest doing the same for less cost.

Just as the others have stated, the balloon boots are too tight to open and once on they are too tight around leg of animal. After a few uses of using same ones in the pack, they eventually get loose enough to open to put animal's paws inside, but still too tight to wear for the action.

After measuring the dog's foot 2x I orderd the recommended size and then found that while the foot part would be the right size the top was so small that they couldn't be worn. I'm glad I only ordered the booties for 1 dog.

We got our dog these for the beach that has tar on the sand. Unfortunately they are the right size, but the top of the boot where you put the foot in is very tight on her and makes it very uncomfortable for her.

I purchased these boots in the hope of protecting Jillie's feet while we were up in the snowy hills. Since they were rubber, I thought they would keep her from slipping in addition to keeping her feet dry. So this is how our trial run at home went... As another reviewer mentioned, the boots are basically made like a thick balloon. We tried putting a SINGLE dog boot on her front paw multiple times, even employing a licky mat to distract her. I pulled the elastic of the boot wide open so we could slip her foot in more easily and my daughter held her foot still. (It's definitely not a 1-person task!) Once on, I realized that the small opening was way too tight and constricting, even for her I purchased these boots in the hope of protecting Jillie's feet while we were up in the snowy hills.

Once on, I realized that the small opening was way too tight and constricting, even for her skinny legs. Her front paws (ankles, if you will) are 3" in diameter and the opening on the balloon, although its elastic expands a little, is only 2 1/2". (Two of my fingers is about the same diameter, so I tried a boot to see how tight it would feel. Not comfy!) We tried putting the boot on her hind paw, and it was wasn't as much of a struggle as putting it on the front. However, since her hind ankle is the same diameter, the balloon was still too tight a fit. … more

Love these for my dog on the hot sand at the beach or rocky terrain. They’re easy to use and do not irritate my dog. I can usually wash them and reuse them 3 times or so

These are definitely glorified balloons for dog paws. The smell and feel of them are like an actual balloon. With that being said, if you have a dog with long hair (in my case a Maltese), you have to be careful with the balloons pulling on it. I ordered a size bigger (my mistake), but they do stay on, that is one good thing. I also like that it comes with an extra set as they seem to wear and tear after a while. Next time, I will order the correct size. Overall, yes I would recommend!

Theu did not fit the paws of our Yellow Labrador, the top part is extremely small and we could not force them to fit into the paws.

I bought these 6 years ago when I saw my dog trying to balance while also trying to lift a frozen paw off the ground. It takes only moments to get them on and popping them off is even faster. Since she can still feel the ground under the rubber she doesn't even seem to notice she is wearing them and trots around totally as normal. My original pack of 12 is now down to 7. A couple ripped because I let them dry together, so separate them when drying & she lost a couple when they popped off in deep snow. They also prevent ice balls forming in the pads between her toes. I would buy these again tomorrow.

We started using these all through the winter. We have 2 yorkies now and they are 11 months apart in age with our youngest under 6 months old. These are fantastic over socks and keep them warm, clean, and dry. They are reusable and they are still disposable. I already bought enough for the coming year for our dogs and we bought extra socks for warmth in winter. I learned that dogs lose most of their body heat in the paws, unlike people that lose their body heat from their heads. Our dogs hate regular dog shoes, but both quickly got used to wearing these flexible Pawz! I think every dog deserves to have comfort.
