Fun Fact from Maya
"My paws fit perfectly in the XS size! If your pup has even tinier paws than mine, like Cedric’s, these boots might be a little too big for them. But don’t worry—there’s a perfect pair out there for every pup and we'll share these with you whenever we find the right ones for him!"
A Few Things to Keep in Mind
-
For Quick Walks: These boots are best for short snowy walks and light outdoor use. If your pup loves long adventures on rough pavement, they might wear out faster.
-
Soft and Flexible: These boots are designed for comfort and warmth but aren’t made for heavy-duty use.
-
Waterproofing: Although these boots feature a water-resistant exterior, heavy moisture from puddles or wet snow may eventually seep through. We recommend keeping walks short and avoiding deep puddles for best results.
-
Durability: These boots are not the most durable and may have slight imperfections, but they’re the only ones Maya has been able to keep on so far. After a winter and a half of adventures, hers are showing some wear and tear, but they’ve served her well! If these boots work for your pup and you’ve struggled to find ones that fit, we recommend ordering a few extra pairs while they’re in stock. That way, you’ll always have a fresh pair ready when the old ones are too worn out to use.
Tips and Tricks from Maya
How to Put the Boots On
- Hold the boot by the opening and gently place the tip of your dog’s paw inside.
- Calmly guide the paw into the boot while your pup slowly puts their weight down, ensuring their paw reaches the bottom.
- Tighten the strap snugly around the boot.
- Flip the strap around the boot so the tightening button sits at the back (less tempting for nibblers!).
How to Take the Boots Off
- Flip the strap back to the front.
- Loosen the strap.
- Gently let your dog pull their paw out—easy peasy!
Training Tips for Boot Beginners
Wearing boots might feel a little weird for your pup at first—it sure did for me! I looked like I was trying to step out of mine with every move. 🐾 But after a few tries, I got used to them! Once I realized they let me walk in the snow for longer, I became super cooperative about wearing them.
Here’s what helped me get comfy:
- Start with short sessions indoors so your dog gets used to the feeling.
- Offer treats and praise to build positive associations with the boots.
- Take it slow and be patient—it’s a learning experience for both of you!
Nibble-Proofing Tip
If your pup loves chewing on everything (like I used to when I had teeth!), you might want to remove the lace cap on these boots. The little plastic cap can break if chewed, and we don’t want that ending up in your pup’s tummy! Stay safe, friends. 🐾
Give your pup the comfort and protection they deserve this winter. Order Maya’s favorite boots today and make snowy walks a cozy, happy adventure!
