Grip Trex Dog Shoes - 2 Count, Red Sumac, 2.25"

We have had and worn these for several days and are super happy with them thus far. Our 10-year-old lab has arthritic front feet, we have a very long and rocky driveway that gets walked a couple of times a day, and he had started exhibiting lameness after his second walk of the day and would stay on the porch refusing to walk. We are already on Librela monthly for his shoulders so wanted to offer him a way to manage the discomfort/pain. Enter shoes to help mitigate tenderness. To begin with, this fella’s feet are HUGE (almost 3.5” across without any weight on them) so finding shoes to fit is a challenge. We started with another brand that has a sole with moderate durability and neoprene uppers. They are okay enough but barely lasted 10 days with the underbrush on our property. Looking for more durability, we took the chance on the largest of these RuffWear shoes after seeing photo reviews of other pups that seemed to have paws as large as he. He has worn shoes before in his life so acclimated quickly to these. They are a shorter design than most and so are incredibly easy to slip on. The sole is very sturdy and thus a bit stiff to begin with; I do recommend ensuring your pup’s nails are trimmed to reduce any discomfort from pressure when wearing them. We don’t have dew claws so I cannot speak on that being an issue or not. The Velcro fastener is secure and the shoes seem to stay in place when the shoe is on and secured. We don’t wear them for extended periods; maximum of about 30 minutes per outing so we haven’t noticed any damage to his paws but I’d imagine we should break them in before attempting a longer walk or hike. Shoes in general have helped with his tenderness/lameness but our initial pair was just good enough. These offer extra protection between his feet and the rocky ground, are super easy to slip on, and have withstood the underbrush on the property. Are they pricey? Yes. Do I think they are worth it at this time? Also, yes. *Update* We have had these just over a month. We still love them! The soles have broken in well and become more pliable and are holding up well. Our guy wears these a few times a day for 15-30 minutes at a time to either walk the property or play a game of fetch. He’s even gotten to a point that he lifts his paw to help us take them on and off. We even picked up a second pair to put in rotation.

I bought these shoes for the sole purpose of not getting my dogs paws burned while walking in our trip. The material doesn't feel flimsy or cheap they never ripped or got a hole from walking in our trip. The shoes felt pretty sturdy and breathable. When we put them on it fit his paws perfectly. The problem was that his legs are too skinny from where you tighten it so they slipped off easily unless we tightened it as much as we could without hurting him. The picture I put was his first day wearing them he wasn't too happy. He didn't know how to stand up with them, tried taking them off and walked like a newborn baby deer. He walked funny at first but on the 2nd day he got used to it as we walked all around Las Vegas (it was 109F) and Laughlin by the Colorado River (it was 115 F when we went). I provided a video of him walking in the shoes. I was skeptical about the ground still being able to burn his paws but when I would check to feel his paws they were not hot at all!!! We also let him swim with the shoes on in the river, so it wouldn't hurt when he would walk on top of the rocks where the shallow area was and he had no problems with it on. Next, I took him to the Grand Canyon and Williams in Arizona (it was 100 F the two days we went) to explore and I noticed his feet were moist from the sweat so I would take it off and carry him but then put them back on once they've dried and he was able to keep walking on them. I would check to see if his paws would get blisters while having it on from walking to the view points but there was no blistering. His paws did not get burned or hurt thanks to these dog booties. I got a lot of compliments on him wearing them he looks so cute and happy in them. Another thing was they did keep slipping off while at the grand canyon but it was because I did not tighten them enough because I thought it would hurt him. I did end up tightening up to wear it shows the shoe size but it didn't hurt him as he was still willing to walk in them and didn't bark or try to take them off. I think it helped that I also used the Mushers secret on his paws before I put the shoes on him just incase the heat from the pavement would go through the shoes but I didn't see any problems. Overall, I do recommend getting these for hot weather. My dog survived walking through the heat without blisters or getting his paws burned. Must get!

They fit my Aussie's paws well and have a great grip while being easily adjusted. I love them for hot TX summer days to protect the pups feet. I've tried a few dog shoes and these were the best on Amazon for the price.

We hike every day and, in the southwest mountains, it gets really hot and there are often red ants on trails. Unlike the other dogs in our pack, she wears these and has never been bitten. She is able to freely move and maintains traction on various terrain. They are really easy to use, getting on and off. We haven't tested the waterproof function, but these feel very durable and despite running in circles, playing, and hiking the grip is still new, months later. The only thing I would change is to make them more breathable--it gets hot during the summer and her paws are very sweaty after using. Dust from trails gets inside, so I would question the waterproof ability. Make sure they are on flat and tight. They haven't fallen off except during our first use. Tip to help them get used to the shoes: immediately after putting them on start playing with their favorite toy. We put the toy away for a few days and pulled it out once the shoes were on. She instantly forgot about the shoes and started running and walking normally. Unlike Mukluks, these don't have a natural feel sole, so they feel weird to the dog. Playing helps them go over that before they form an opinion about them. She associates the shoes with fun times and adventures.

I'm giving one star as I give for most dog booties I've tried, and I'll tell you why. I bought this pair after measuring my dog's paw according to their instructions. And yet, like most booties, it crushes my dog's dew claw so intensely against his leg that it draws blood, swells up the dew claw, and essentially causes more problems than it solves. I'm even doing this with the Ruffwear socks on underneath AND moleskin over his dew claw. Still, he's in more pain wearing the boot than not, so it's a useless product to me. Why can't the designers of these things solve this issue, it's so recurrent.

This is a great product, so far. I’ll get to the why of the 3 stars in a second. My puppy (11 months old) has a neurological condition and must wear shoes. He drags his feet (knuckling). He took to these immediately. And some walks they stay on and sometimes not. Still working on figuring it all out. As we just adopted him 5 days ago. Here is to why I’m only giving it 3 stars. Both of the shoes have the Velcro going the same direction. So no mater what feet they are on the tip of the Velcro strap is hitting on his inner leg. I noticed today that it has actually caused a sore to form where to Velcro was hitting. My solution was to order a second pair. That way I can use one from each set and that will ensure the Velcro is always on the outer part of the leg. I’m fine with ordering a second pair since he’s only 11 months old and this will be a life long condition for him there for he will be wearing shoes for the rest of his life which we hope is a very long one.

these shoes are very durable and work very well so far. our little Gilbert is paralyzed and his back legs drag. so he wears these shoes upside-down/or backwards so the durable side can drag to protect his little tosies. they are very cute shoes and fit him well.

I was really nervous to order these because i needed thick souls for the desert heat BUT dogs cant walk in super hard soles... these are perfect. the soles are soft and easy for my pup to walk in BUT thick enough to keep paws safe on pavement that is 160 F. I am so happy. yes they are spendy but i feel they are worth it. they also have great grip on the bottom so it actually makes it easier for my pup to walk on slippery floors. oh and last thing i was really happy with. the shoe is mostly mesh on top BUT the "ankle" part is still enough to make it easy to just slip the paw in BUT flexible enough to not hinder movement

Fake product

Conviennent bien, le chien les a 'accepté' sans problèmes et marche bien avec; à recommander pour les balades en montagne.

Gutes. Material, leider zu klein

I was looking for something to help my elderly Wire Haired Fox Terrier. He has degenerative myelopathy and struggles on most surfaces to grip and it has been heartbreaking watching him fall and lose his balance so often. He also drags his rear paws and has worn the nails to the quick where they bleed. Rufus only weighs 8.5kgs and his paws are small. I measured according to the directions and went ahead and ordered the smallest size, 1.5in. Boots arrived and are exactly as pictured. I put them on Rufus's rear paws and cinched the velcro tight and he was fine from the get go. Rufus has grip and his hind legs are held firm on the ground, even inside on the polished wood floor. Really pleased so far and Rufus seems not to be bothered with them at all. Great purchase, well worth the money paid to see my little dog upright and not struggling to walk!

Premetto che dipende dalle vostre esigenze. Ma avendone avute diverse, queste sono le migliori
