Our driveway is blacktop %26 our deck gets hot, as well as the sidewalk- I can tell in the summer months it bothers her feet? Have you ever tried shoes on your dog?
Answers:
You may want to try putting baby socks on her first, to see how she does with wearing things on her feet before spending the money on specialty shoes.
I have 5 dogs %26 have never tried shoes, but have found that some of my dogs love to wear clothes while others could care less.
One of my dogs had a foot injury which req'd bandages. She constantly wanted to chew bandages off. I was able to put a sock on her %26 that worked quite well...she didn't mind the sock at all.
Since you want her to wear shoes/ paw mitts to protect her feet... you just gotta stick them on her %26 see how she does. If she rebels on first attempt, try again, perhaps outside so that she can feel the difference on the blacktop.
she willl prob nopt wear them
my friend bought some for her shih tzu and he hated them and ripped them off
it couldn't hurt to try it, especially if its protecting your dog's paws from the heat.
They are great especially when matched with an expensive pocket watch.
Booties can be helpful but are a chore to keep on. Depending on how paitent your dog is booties will either do wonders and make walking on hot ground a breeze or be a constant struggle to keep them on. Purchaes an inexpensive pair to test out and then if they work purchase a higher quality brand.
Get her some boots that she can't tear off.
She is a dog not a toy.
Muttluck boots or cozy slip ons are the only things dogs wear and they're for Winter.
there are protective coverings for dogs that resemble baby booties with a leather type bottom but usually it's more so for the winter months as constant cold mixed with gravel can affect their pads. dogs can be very picky about there paws and it would take them so getting used to. an easier method is simply rubbing just a bit of vaseline on there pads when it starts to feel rough or might start to crack
