Wound Recovery Boot for Dogs. Protects and Heals Paw. Made from Softshell, Water Resistant and Breathable Material. Recommended by Vets. (Large, Black)

My German Shepherd, Mia, on her fifth birthday, sliced open her paw, and after various visits to the vet, something had to be done to keep her from licking her wounds. The wraps at the vet had given us were practically useless as Mia would rip them off, and begin to lick and remove the stitches from her paw. After the second time, she was able to remove her stitches. I decided that something needed to be done. I saw this medical boot on Amazon and as I was a little weary that it wouldn’t be able to withstand Mia I bought it anyway and I am so glad that I did because this was the only thing that kept Mia from licking and reopening her stitches. She couldn’t understand how to take it off which was great so her paw was able to heal nicely, and now she is running around as rambunctious as ever after finally getting her paw to heal all because I put her in a medical boot for her recovery. She also loves splashing in puddles with the medical boot, and it was able to keep her wound and stitches, virtually dry, and that is a real challenge when it comes to Mia so that was more than a relief when I realized that this boot was also pretty water resistant.

This stuff is all useless. The one size fits all doesnt work and tryng to put it on an ailing dog is painful for you and the dog

My old dog has an ongoing paw problem that needs wrapped. This boot has been the best! And I have tried many others. It opens wide enough to fit over a bandaged paw, but the Velcro straps allow it to be tightened for a really secure supportive fit. They show wear after a month or two, but I just keep ordering more because This is the boot!

Took my dog out to potty after it rained. Dog was on leash and it was a quick out & in trip. Maybe 5 minutes or less. The wound wrap on dogs paw was slightly damp. Wrap wound with cling wrap under this to keep the vet wrap totally dry. Easy to put on and off though & protects cling wrap from being punctured from a stiff blade of grass. Ultimately pet wounds are a total pain but this does help to keep paws clean when going outside. I just wish it had a little better waterproofing.

There is a rather dramatic shift from Medium to Large. I have a greyhound so I need something really narrow and tall. The Large gets the right height with a bit too much diameter (and way too much velcro), while the medium gets a better diameter (a little too small actually) but felt like less than half the height of the large, which made it completely impractical for me. There are plenty of medium and large breeds that are tall and aren't built like tanks... A tall set of sizes and a short set of sizes would be amazing to me, but may make things too niche. Setting aside the size range oddness, the velcro really is annoying. I ended up tying a couple of knots in each band of the velcro in order to adjust it down to my dog's slim leg. Considering all the complaints I am seeing in the reviews, something could really be done to vastly improve the line of boots by doing some combo of the following: A- make the velcre either longer so that a double wrap could be possible where necessary OR shorter because even simply filling the volume of the large boot with a cylinder still left too much velcro to actually secure the boot to the cylinder. B - even out the proportion of hook side to loop side to be closer to even so that there is more of a chance for the two sides to catch against each other C- replace the velcro altogether with something less stretchy because there is way more give in the current length than can be used to actually wrap up a paw. Critiques aside, this is much easier to use and kinder on my pet's skin than a lot of other products I have had to try out during an extended recovery process in wet weather. I still use a sock with this boot because (lucky me) my dog's skin chafes that easily, but I appreciate how well these boots are balancing the competing demands of being lightweight, protective, durable, and comfortable. I think it is doing a really good job with that balancing act. I am impressed with the durability! Tweaks to the velcro would make this aces.

I bought this to help my dog with a lick spot on her paw so I could put the cream the vet gave us on her without licking it. When I went to put it on the spilt was to far down and the straps were to long. The spilt is needed to slip the paw in and the straps to hold the boot on but unfortunately it wasn’t working for my dogs paw. I measured like it told me too and got the right size it said would be correct. The return was pretty decent and I didn’t have a problem with the company. Overall needs some work so it doesn’t slip off the paw.

My dog tore a nail off and needed to wear a bandage for a week. It was important that we keep the bandage dry to stave off infection. It took a few days for this boot to arrive, and my dog’s first bandage change alarmed the vet a bit because water had encroached and damaged her skin. The boot arrived the night before this vet visit and the vet gave it the thumbs up. So I put it on my dog and we went off camping for the weekend (with vet approval). My dog ran around all weekend on leaves and sticks. We had dry weather luckily, but still dealt with some morning dew. The boot stayed solidly on her foot despite a lot of activity. At her second bandage change, everything looked perfect. Dry bandage, healed wound. Highly recommend this product!

Was excited to receive this product as my dog was in a cast and could not get his foot wet. This item was meant to solve that problem but unfortunately was ripped and tattered after one walk. This is all neoprene with no type of additional padding and overall poor quality.

Sadly, misleading photos (no doubt just poor shots, not anything underhand) meant that the product was chosen for the wrong reasons and didn't do the job it was purchased to do. Sent it back.

I bought the boot to use throughout the day for my dog's hotspot on his rear paw. At night he wears the cone but this gives him a break during the daytime. After cleaning and applying ointment, I place a non stick gauze pad over the sore and cover with boot. I ordered a large for my wheaten terrier and fit is ok but think medium would have been better. Happy with boot and my dog seems comfortable with it too.

Complete waste of money! This was $25 and it broke after two walks. Thought it would be better quality, the bottom doesn’t even have grips or any rubber bottom so it’s not even waterproof when walking in the snow or wet ground.

I see how this would be useful but because of its shape, it really is only useable for front paws. Because of the shape (longer and angle) of back paw, it didn’t fit. Had to use a poop back with self adhering tape instead.

It works great. Keeps bandage and stitches clean and dry. Happy it has 3 straps stays on securely. Colour great dark blue. Doesn't show dirt or stain.
