Dog Boots
Dog boots are not nearly as silly a product as one might imagine. If you are asking your dog to walk on pavement day after day, think seriously about a set of boots for their paws. There is a reason that in today’s unnatural environment, you wear shoes for protection on your feet as well, and your dog is no less appreciative of the fact that his feet need support. Dogs weren’t meant to run around on concrete and it is very hard on the pads of their little paws. Concrete is a seriously abrasive surface. Many hunting dogs wear boots to protect their paws from sharp foreign objects, sticks, or barbed wire, anything nasty they may encounter in the field. There are many good providers of dog boots, I think my favorite is Neo-Paws, and they make so many more great pet products as well, not just dog boots. Other dog clothing can help contain pet dandger which helps with many common dog allergies too. So don’t shrug off the dog clothing as a ridiculous idea.
