PawZ Rubber Dog Boots for Paws 4″ and Up, 12 Pack – All-Weather Dog Booties for Hot Pavement, Snow, Mud, and Rain – Waterproof, Anti Slip Dog Socks – X-Large, Black

Beware – UPDATED
I don’t think I’ve ever given a one star rating before, but this product deserves it. I bought a set of these for my male Belgian Tervuren, about a 70 pound dog. I had him stand on paper, drew lines in front of his claws and just behind his rear pad, measured the distance (3 5/8 inches) and followed the fitting advice to order the LARGE size. This size is for Akitas, Labs, etc.The balloon part is fine – there is enough room for his paw. HOWEVER (big problem alert), the neck of the boot is so tight that a) it takes two people to put it on his paw and b) it hurts his leg because of the constriction – he holds his paws up and tries not to stand on them, and c) it’s very difficult to pull the boots off the paws once you finally get them on because the neck is SO tight.Perhaps I got a defective set, but this product is of zero use for me. I have no idea what these were made for – baby giraffes? Seriously, the ankles on these things are so much too small that it’s laughable.UPDATE: I wrote to the Pawz company about this but nobody has responded. I wanted to say to those of you who have the same problem we did that if you cut the tops of the boots off just below the lip it becomes workable, at least it did for us. The boots can then be put on by one person (although women might have more trouble than men due to the hand strength issue – I’m a guy and I didn’t have any trouble) and the boots do not fall off on a long walk. I can’t speak to how they stay on with active play or work because we don’t do that with this older dog. I am leaving my review at one star because this is an issue the company really needs to address, even if it is in such a basic way as to inform customers via some text on the label. The boots do seem to work once you alter them, and when they work they should get a better review than I am giving them, but…they are really awful straight out of the box and the company’s response to my inquiry was terrible, as in non-existant. Pawz needs a wakeup call, so my rating stands.Just know what you are getting in to.

So close but yet so far
Out of all the bad reviews I read on here for tightness on the upper part/opening of the balloon, I didn’t see any comments about how easily they rip. I’ll get to the point. A few great things to say are, the dogs don’t mind them as much since they can feel the ground and they don’t necessarily shift around or slide off. Awesome for rainy muddy days so the mud doesn’t get tracked all over the house. Great concept, again, poor execution and quality. My dog did not have a problem with the tightness around his leg part. I purchased extra large for an 80lbs Old English Sheepdog.Cons: You need 2 people to put them on. You will not be able to open the balloon and ease their paw in a tight opening.They will rip as you are putting them on with just opening them. I ripped 4 in one day.They are not adjustable. With just these 2 MAJOR flaws, I can not recommend or repurchase. They are pretty much disposable. The company probably (irresponsibly) knows this since they don’t make any mention on how many come in a pack and why. They will become a one time use and 2 if you’re lucky.

Vale a pena pela pequena que precisa e é mais útil que qualquer produto feito no Brasil. mas essa de pagar quase 400 Reais é difícil, na nota mostrava o valor de míseros 18 dólares.

sono davvero comodissime, essendo in gomma il cane sente l’aderenza col terreno e cammina senza problemi (la mia Dafne ci corre anche).ottime per tenere i piedini asciutti se il terreno è bagnato o ha nevicato o comunque per evitare calpesti sostanze pericolose così una volta tolte non si leccano i pedini per rimuovere lo sporco rischiando di ingerirle.
