Title: Literal life savers
Review: My 14 ½ year old Miniature Schnauzer's toe beans had become so slick that, in combination with our hardwood floors, getting around the house became like walking or standing on ice for him. He started to give up and just lie around, which would only hurt his aging joints more.I tried numerous products to get him traction and never had any luck. Slipper socks for dogs, stickers for his pads, various nail caps, etc... Most didn't work at all. Some worked but wouldn't stay on. Then I found Pawz.I cannot praise these enough. The first round, I discovered that, though they gave him traction, they were a bit snug around the top band and due to the booties being rubber, his feet got hot and swollen. But they WORKED and were very cost-effective. So I made 2 modifications to fix that: 1) I cut off the top band. The neck of the booties are snug enough to hold them on his leg without the tight band. And 2) When I prepare a new set for him, I cut a few tiny holes in the side that will sit on top of his foot. That way, his feet can breathe, but he still gets the water resistance on the part that touches the ground. BINGO. This made them perfect.Now, my little guy is getting around so well that he is playing again and has even gotten the zoomies several times again!So, don't be afraid to modify these to fit your pet's needs. Each set lasts about a week before needing to be replaced (I take them off when we go to bed every night), and each box comes with 3 sets.IMPORTANT SIDE NOTE: I highly recommend getting the "tool" the maker invented to put these on. Doing it without the tool is possible (even for dogs like mine who hate having their feet touched), but only with one person holding the dog and the other putting on the booties. With the tool, you can do it solo.

Title: Beware - UPDATED
Review: 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.

Title: Three years later and we still can't function without these
Review: I initially purchased my first box of these in 2013 out of desperation. I live in Chicago and had bought several rather expensive pairs of dog shoes for my 13 lb Chihuahua, whose tiny paws cannot tolerate the snow and extreme cold of Chicago winters. He was able to walk right out of every pair of shoes I purchased, no matter how well I thought I measured. I thought these looked cheap and silly, but I had no choice but to take the risk because nothing else had worked.Now, three years since I bought my first box, I don't know how we would function without them! Firstly, I found them to be much easier to put on than they appear (although it helps to have a very cooperative dog, like my little man is). I like to turn my dog over on his back, grab a boot, stretch the mouth using the index and middle fingers of both hands, then simply place over my dog's paw and release. It can be a bit tricky the first few times around, but it wasn't long before I was able do all four paws in well under a minute. And, unlike every shoe I've ever put on every dog I've ever had, my Chihuahua does not walk around awkwardly in these - or completely refuse to walk at all. It's almost as if he's wearing nothing.I am most impressed with how well these boots protect my dog's feet. Typically, when going barefoot in the cold or snow, it would take only about a minute before his paws became intolerably cold and he simply froze in place while holding one paw in the air. I would then have to venture outside to retrieve him myself because no amount of calling or coxing would make him move from that spot. With these boots, he is able to go outside to the bathroom without issue and come back in with dry feet. I've also noticed that he dilly-dallies a lot more now that he has these boots, which is not necessarily a good thing when you want him to just do his business and come in, but it's proof that the boots are serving their purpose very well. Occasionally, he does come back in without one of his boots, but it's been a very rare occurrence. I recommend buying one of the bright colors so that they are easy to find if you have a large backyard and/or are planning to use them at night. The first boots I purchased were orange, which made the boots very easy to spot when one did fall off. The boots I most recently purchased were black and they are definitely much more difficult to locate.I've also noticed that these are very durable. Of the two packages I've purchased, only one of the boots (one of the older ones) has ever torn. The only reason I purchased another box of boots is because the orange color looked horrible with my dog's new blue snow suit (silly, I know). And yes, they do look very much like glorified balloons, but balloons absolutely cannot be successfully substituted for these boots. For one thing, these boots are thicker and more durable than your average balloon. Secondly, the necks of these boots are constructed in such a way that they fit nearly perfectly around the leg of the dog and do not cause discomfort. The same cannot be said for the narrow, restrictive necks of balloons.My only issue with this product is that they seem overpriced. You get the sense that they cost much, much less to produce than what we're being charged given the materials used. I've certainly gotten my money's worth, though, so I can't really complain. Overall, I consider these boots to be one of the best purchases I've ever made for my dog. He won't be winning any canine fashion awards any time soon, but at least he'll be warm.

Title:
Review: For many years my wife and I designed, made and tested dog boots. We wanted to sell them as part of our dog grooming business. Some designs worked better than others in different situations but none so consistently as these at simply staying on.We looked at long distance dog wraps but for installing 3 times a day on 3 dogs out for a neighbourhood walk (Olivia refuses to sled, haha) this wasn't an option. We didn't try any of the paw waxes assuming they would collect and track whatever into the house. We do make sure to smartly remove and wipe the pawz off.These are thicker and have a shorter neck than less expensive party balloons. If you take care of them (in other words don't wreck them) you'll get more than a season depending on the dog's activity level.Pro-tip.. after trying and modifying the expensive Medium JawZ (hard on the fingers, patience and PawZ boots while stretching) we ended up going with simple inexpensive balloon expansion pliers (search amazon) which work waay better and don't risk damaging the boots like the JawZ (funny that).Our pack - Mini Poodle, Bichon Shih Tzu and French Bulldog all fit the the Small size. Ultimate test, if Kimi the Mini Poodle doesn't destroy or lose these no dog can.

Review: 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.
