We had to put booties on my old (13) pitty's back feet so she can walk w/out slipping. Her hips are bad. Didn't balk. Just walked & smiled!

I'm surprised the cameraman was able to keep the dog in frame. I would've had to put the camera down to laugh my ass off.
IsolatedThinker
Protects the little toe beans from gettin stuck to ice and such, use it in the summer as well so dont get burnt beans.
whattasteslikepurple
I like to think things like this are on the same level as wearing lame clothes to embarrass your kids.

I have never laughed so wholeheartedly at any other "doggo wears boots for first time" post as this. +1
effarydi
My dog did this inside the house but seemed to intrinsically understand their purpose once he went outside and realized his feet didn't hurt
unsaltedandsharkfree
What a smart dog! What kind is it?
effarydi
Romeo is a whippet. No body fat in Chicago so he's used to getting bundled up at this point, boots included (only outside though)
Kayshizzle88
Why do all dogs have the same reaction?
AnApologeticCanadian
My theory is that they use their paws to sense the floor below them. When they wear to boots they think the floor is moving up with 1/2
AnApologeticCanadian
Them and so they move their feet even higher to get off the floor. It takes while before they can get used to the feeling. 2/2
LeeroyTheBird
Or maybe they think floor is lava?
CheesyPoofsWithSomeFavaBeansAndANiceChianti
My dog complains about how the snow makes her feet hurt but then refuses to walk in booties. It's infuriating.
LeeroyTheBird
And probably a little hilarious, yes?
CheesyPoofsWithSomeFavaBeansAndANiceChianti
yes when I first got them. Now she acts like her feet get frostbit and refuses to walk outside and then poops in the house.
mel1984
I put jingle bells on my dogs feet for Christmas and it terrified him. Then i felt bad.
ZorroMuerte
I did this to my cat, she freaked and ran all over the place trying to get away from the bell.

Remember last year in AZ it got so hot that the pavement gave dogs bad burns, may be this is to help them?
Drougals
If you live in Arizona you should not have a dog with out shoes in those hot summer days if it's too hot for you it's too hot for the dog
parkinglotsushi
Most of us walk our dogs early morning or in the evening. During the day we jump from pocket to pocket of AC as fast as we can
MontyPythonQFHG
Yeah dogs paws can get frost bitten if they are walking in snow for a lengthy time or if it's just really cold, we have a gel we put on ours
pianoguy7
Think it is actually the rock salt used on sidewalks/roads that ends up "burning" their feet.
BDF1838
1/2 This sounded weird to me given dogs used to be wolves, so I googled it and it seems at least for sled-dogs frost bite is a non-factor
JayEnfield
Had a german shepherd / rottie growing up. That dog ran around for hours in 2 feet of snow at -30, no issues, no doggy-clothing ever.
OmNachoMama
I heard an article saying dogs raised in the cold get acclimated, but even huskies or wolves raised in Hot climates can suffer
OmNachoMama
Greatly in the cold and get frostbite.
BDF1838
Interesting, I could see it happening. Much like occupation can affect people's hands or feet thickness of dead skin.
BDF1838
2/2 Sled dogs sometimes use boots, but only because of scrapes/tears due to rough snow. Thick skin and higher body temp prevent frostbite.
BDF1838
Read about it here: https://iditarod.com/zuma/do-sled-dogs-wear-booties-to-prevent-frostbite-by-sanka-w-dog/
MyHumanForm
That's sled dogs who train and get used to this. Your average household pet does not build up to this. And they use wax to protect from cuts
LoquaciousDude
Well, dogs used to be wolves, key word, used- We share common ancestors with apes, yet we wear clothes.. Like, that logic is flawed.. :-) 1/
LoquaciousDude
Still, good on you for actually googling! Also, salt can be quite an issue, it gets up under their paws if salt is used where you live

Would this only be okay if dog has to walk on hot pavement? To not burn paws?
LSparkles
Yes, it would be great if you live somewhere where by 9am its 90F (Florida), cause the pavement is scary hot and burns their paws too.
YoungHeathen
It doesn’t hurt the dog, and they get used to them very quickly.
Hashbrown123
That is how shoes tend to work.
kimbozo
Snowy/salty pavement as well, i have to put them on my dog on really cold winter days
ASDFFDSAASDFASDF
rocksalt burns them in winter iirc
idonthaveanyideawhatthehelliamtalkingabout
Was it burning or freezing ?
ASDFFDSAASDFASDF
chemical 'burn' i think
AUserNameWorthIgnoring
My sister runs long distances with her dog, his pads were getting raw so he needed these. Also for rocky terrain, she is a rock climber.
ClimbThemCrimps
I am a lady rock climber with a dog pal too! We are connected in this small way.
AUserNameWorthIgnoring
It's actually my sister. She just ended a 2 year road trip devoted to climbing. She kicks butt on the rock, I kick butt in a lab (1/2)
AUserNameWorthIgnoring
And like many scientists, the cat is my furry friend of choice. I like dogs, but I can't balance lab life with their needs (2/2).
ClimbThemCrimps
hahah well I also work in a research lab! I usually do a 3 week road-trip annually. Hopefully can do a long-term one in a few years....
shhep
It's mainly for salt. Dog paws can handle most things, but idiotic amounts of wet, salty slush is not one of them.
Musicosity
Why is that?
fiveohatch
Heat too. It'll get 110°+ here sometimes during the summer. Shouldn't have a dog outside then though. Those temps mean very hot pavement.
FierceAndAdorable
There is snow, but unless they are running huge miles, or extreme cold, or fog has foot problems not really needed
idonthaveanyideawhatthehelliamtalkingabout
I hate it when my fog has foot problems
Drougals
There to protect against salt and ice accumulating and damaging their paws

No. Swooty would have been better.
trevasaurusrex
I work at a pet store and winter is the best because I get to see all breeds of dog struggle with booties.
Aylasita
Is it just me that feel like maybe the design og doogboots could be a bit better to sit better on the dogfoot and probably feel better?
trevasaurusrex
The trick is that you have to design them based on averages. Too much differentiation between breeds.
