The dog shoes are constructed with an insulating softshell fabric on the top for good breathability. This fabric and dog shoe sole provides weather-resistant heat in extremely cold and bad weather.
The Ruffwear-designed Vibram® Icetrek outsole provides good traction on icy and snowy surfaces and is a barrier against cold and snow-melting chemicals.
The Velcro strap that is located under the shoe's cuff / shaft is placed at the dog's narrowest part of the leg - all too good a fit. The hook-and-loop closure is located in the narrowest part of the dog's legs for a secure fit.
ADDITIONAL FEATURES
Good dog accessories when you want to protect your dog's paws against, for example, snow and ice.
The dog shoe has a soft cuff with a YKK zipper that you can easily fold down when you take off or put on the shoe. The cushion also helps so that there is not a lot of snow in the shoe.
As extra help, for a perfect fit, there is one
straps with velcro closure under the cuff on the shoe.
Tighten this and when you have been out for about 15 minutes, check if you need to correct the Velcro strap so that the shoe fits well on your dog's paws. Just like you do with your own equipment.
Hundskorna´s rubber soles have a special pattern that gives perfect prep in the snow.
There are reflectors on the upper of the dog shoe.
The shoe is sold in a 2-pack because most dogs have wider front legs than hind legs.
Some tips:
1. When you first get your dog's shoes home, work them into your hands so that the sole is more flexible. Due to their weight, small dogs have a particularly hard time softening the outsole of their boots, so softening them with your hands can really help them become more comfortable, quickly.
2. Your dog will probably shake his paws and take high steps the first time you put on the dog shoes.
This is a natural reaction!
Do not worry and try not to laugh at your dog - dogs are sensitive and laughter can cause anxiety for them.
You may be surprised at how quickly your dog will get used to the idea of boots if you follow the tips above, and perhaps most importantly, use lots of rewards to make it a fun and engaging experience.
3. Measure your dog's paws carefully before ordering.
Take it easy when your dog gets used to his new shoes.
5. Praise and reward all the time
