Pawz Waterproof Dog Boots, 12 count

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

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!

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.

I have been using these booties on my 14 year old Bichon who has neurological problems in his back legs. My house is all tile and these booties give him traction to walk around the house and he is able to get up when he falls. I highly recommend these booties. They are a great product and you can wipe any dirt off of them.

My backyard gets muddy in spots when it rains and my pit always has to find those spots when I let her out. It is annoying trying to get the mud from between her toes so I thought I would give these dog boots a try. I was concerned about the ease of putting them on after reading the reviews but I didn't have any issues. The boots are balloon-like but they go on and stay on until I take them off. But they arent so tight that they hurt her. They were easy enough to take off as well. I left the first pair on her for about 15 minutes before I let her out so she could get used to the feel. She didn't really like them being on but she didn't walk weirdly or hold her leg differently when walking as My backyard gets muddy in spots when it rains and my pit always has to find those spots when I let her out.

She was able to go out with no issues and they were so much easier to wipe off! As long as I take them off shortly after coming back in the house she is fine. I tried leaving them on her for the day so she didn't have to wait for me to put them on when she wanted to go out but she chewed a hole in one of them so I don't do that anymore. … more

I love these booties! I originally had a pair for my beagles who all passed away, but now that I have my big baby I wanted to get a pair that fit her. She already has hiking/snow booties, so these particular ones are just for the house/spa days. I usually put on Paw Soother and Pawtection Balm and put these booties on her so she doesn’t lick it off. The results of soft and supple paws after only 20 minutes are definitely worth the hassle. Measured accordingly and they fit perfect! 10/10 would recommend

I had high hopes for this product because our dog runs around the pool deck while our kids swim and her feet get raw from being wet. These lasted a total of 2 minutes before all 4 shredded. What a waste.

These stay on and protect my pup's paws. The 3 stars is because I'm not sure I'll continue to use as the paws are soaking wet on removal and I'm not sure that's healthy or good for my pup.

First of all, they won’t go on a dogs foot! I bought the recommended size and no way they’d stretch. They are heavy balloon material and that’s all they are good for.
