Boots for dogs

Shoes

— shoes that protect the paw pads from contact with the ground.

Many consider shoes for dogs to be a senseless whim, but this is fundamentally wrong: such accessories also have a very practical meaning. So, in winter, sidewalks and roads are often treated with rather aggressive chemicals to avoid icing; such chemicals can cause irritation and burns on unprotected paws. In addition, in cold weather, shoes will protect your pet's paws from hypothermia — and in summer, in turn, from hot asphalt. Also, shoes eliminate the need to wash dirty paws every time you return from the street. And if the pet's paw is injured, you simply cannot do without shoes. And even at home, shoes can come in handy — if the floors are made of parquet or laminate: the dog's claws will not click on the floor and scratch it. However, socks are more suitable for home use (see the relevant paragraph).
