Hipaw Dog Shoes for Summer Hot Pavement,Breathable Dog Boots for Medium Large Dogs,Comfortable Paw Protectors with Nonslip Rubber Sole,Durable Dog Booties for Hiking

These are great. First pair was a little big to fit over the bandages. Decided to buy another smaller pair for walking outside. Protects the bandages.

The most common problem with dog shoes is rolling. That means they will turn on your dog's foot until the top is now on the bottom and your dog ends up walking on it. You have to keep an eye on your dog and turn the shoes until they fit properly again. With this particular shoe I was doing this constantly which was frustrating. The material was so cheap that my dog tore them up very quickly when he was running on the tops before I could get to him and turn them. Because of the way they fit they were moving around on his paws alot. They never felt secure and also would fly off when he sprinted or took off fast because the strap are elastic and had some give to them. They aren't ergonomic but more akin to tube socks.They would be great as house shoes or indoor shoes but I can't recommend them for outdoor use. They just won't hold up and will frustrate both the dog and owner. I opted to buy a different shoe and it was far superior. Keep looking, unless you want a cheap indoor shoe in which case these are great.They breathe very well and will keep your dogs feet cool. They are comfortable, my dog never chewed at them or shook them, he seemed very natural in them. they are lightweight. The pads will protect him indoors and not mark floor surfaces. I would use these for all indoor applications where he is walking, such as hotels or malls, or in a guest home or hospital. They don't hold odor like other shoes do. They are washing machine safe and color fast. I don't use them anymore because we found a better shoe but these are actually perfect for indoor use. Think of them as house slippers instead of shoes and you will have a good idea of what they are.

When my Border Collie wore her toenail down and it started to bleed, I needed something to cover her foot so we could go on our daily 3 mile walk. I wrapped her foot in an elastic bandage, but it was annoying to put it on and take it off every day, so I bought these booties since they would be easy to take on and off.These booties are flexible, so medium fit her foot well and she walked fine in it. We walked about 20 miles on pavement, gravel and dirt paths. While the bottom of the boot held up, the boot slid a bit to the side and it wore out on the fabric part creating a hole. It probably would be more durable if the rubbery sole fabric wrapped around on the sides a bit. Thankfully I only needed one, and her toenail healed after a few weeks, so I have 3 spares for future use.The boots would probably be ok for wearing around the house, for medical reasons, in the yard, on snow, beach or some light walking, but these are definitely not going to hold up to long walks. There are other more durable options out there.

These are great quality and fit. Used them for my little dog when the chemo affected the pads on his paws and he was unable to walk. I bought infant socks to put on his paws, then slipped these shoes on him, and he was able to walk. They function very well, are waterproof, and durable. They velcro high up on the lower leg, so they stayed on well. I washed them many times and they look brand new.

These were purchased for my 11 yr 10 mo old dog who has arthritis, limited mobility and subsequently, tender pads. I would NOT recommend these for slip prevention on hardwood floors or for durability.PROS:*Better than nothing to prevent slipping on the hardwood floors, but she still slips*OK for walks, these help prevent bruising but do rotate around her feet.CONS:*Difficult to get on, even with a lick mat stuck to the fridge to distract her*The sewn-on elasticized strap for securing boot doesn’t do the trick (size is good, the strap placement is wrong for her foot - Verified by my Physical Therapy Vet)*I can’t judge how tight it is (I have non stretch velcro tape I use instead in the proper position)*Do NOT stand up to use - we’ve taken only twelve (measured) 0.17 mile walks, the boots rotated on her feet each time, so we were constantly stopping to adjust them, and the fabric gets damaged.- see photoSorry HiPaw company, these just don’t get my vote.

These shoes really work good. My dog doesn’t even try to mess with them

The media could not be loaded. As the owner of two 2 year old border collies I have my hands full. These two can be pretty rough in general, and fairly obsessive with the ball machine, etc. I bought these almost a year ago and got the wrong size. Meanwhile I have tried using outdoor "boots" for indoor play, socks, and other things....(the boots were too hot, the socks were to slippery and slipping off....) THEN my boy wore a hole in his foot, (outside) and needed some protection so it could heal....And, it isn't like I could tell the border collie to just chill out. On a whim , as I was preparing to send these off to goodwill or something, the card fell out and I thought...what the heck I may as well try writing to the company and see if they will give me the right size. Well, they did still do the replacement - like I said it was quite a while. So, Lisa sent me the new ones in the right size and they are PERFECT....They don't slip or turn, stay on, etc. They seem quite durable yet they breathe well. The cuffs are snug; both my dogs are used to wearing shoes and they know that in order to get the ball machine they have to wear shoes so they are patient. But, you might find it takes a bit of patience to get them on if your dog isn't used to wearing shoes, and if your dog isn't hyper hyper active like mine you might order a size up so the cuff goes on more easily. I mostly use on his front feet.

We bought the wrong size so we did have to return them. I would suggest sizing up. They did come very well packaged and the quality is very well. They just were too small to even put them on our dog's foot.
