| Shoes? OK I do not yet have my baby girl but I am doing a lot of research on anything and everything til I get her. One thing I am wondering about is the dog 'shoes.' Does anyone know if they are actually comfortable/helpful to the dog? I live in the Phoenix AZ area and in the summer the ground is HOT! I worry about how that will feel on her little feet. What do ya'll think? Thanks! I have been living through you people the last couple weeks. |

| Well I like to put shoes on my dogs in the winter when it was icy outside and sometimes when it rains to because they hate getting thier feet wet. If I was walking them on hot concrete I would probobly have them wear shoes then too. I dont usually walk them on concrete though. I think well made shoes are comfortable on dogs although it takes them wearing them a few times to get used to them. Chloe does pretty good in shoes and she doesnt mind them at all.

| Hi, and welcome to YT! I tried the shoe thing once. Didn't work well for me. Or should I say it didn't work well for Raven. She refused to even move in them. She did have fun trying to take them off. Kim

That is funny I was looking at your website when the idea came to me to ask what the thought was on them! I really like the pink little sandles! I'll probably be spoiling her (ok myself) from your site a lot. | |

Donating YT 2000 Club Member | Bailey has supersensitive paws. Thank goodness for the sandals and shoes that are available; he was miserable last summer until we discovered them. He had been bit on the bottom of a paw by a wasp while walking on the grass avoiding the hot pavement..... I bookmarked the website too. |
