| Boots ... size XXXS?? Hello! Does your furbaby have very small paws? My little guy does and XXS slides right off his paws ... I'm guessing he's a XXXS but I'm having a hard time finding any boots that size. Any suggestions?

| Buddy has big feet because he's big but I gave up on trying to keep boots on his feet in the ice and snow. He would loose one almost every time we walked and I always had to back track to find it. They fit snug it seemed but it just wasn't worth the effort. Can't help you with size tho. I think your suppose to measure the foot from front to back then match it to the lenth of the boot itself. That's what I did when I purchased them from a YT vendor a couple years ago. They fit perfectly but never stayed on! |

| you have to tie the boots the way you do with kids mittens with a string and they will stay on better and you will not lose them. http://www.doggiesox.com/lge1.jpg (this one shows longer booties but if they are short you can have the string longers) I don't have anything like this yet but I will make one with black elastic material. And I know it is not the pretiest thing there but make it confertable not to tight and you can also put a sweater over it and nobody will know!!!!

| You could try Epiks. They are expensive but fit Missy's tiny Size 0 feet.

| I will save you some time. This is the cheapest on the net I have found from an ebay seller. I ordered size 2 for Uni they were too big, I am exchanging for size 1. Measure the paw horizontally with a clear ruler. Uni measured exactly 1". She is 5.5 lbs. Missy is size 0 and she is 3.75 lbs, right Shaunna? Size 0 is for paws around 11/16"-3/4" EPIKS SHOES WITH MEMORY FOAM INSOLE BY GOOBY ~BLK w/RED - eBay (item 250547503929 end time Dec-22-09 12:14:43 PST)

| Thanks so much, Bailey's is almost 3/4 inch, so a size zero would work!

YT Addict | I just started an Arts and Crafts blog becuase my little one is too tiny for most things too. I plan to make a pair of boots out of.... an old pair of leather gloves. These particular gloves are cashmere lined so I hope they will keep her warm. I plan to lace them with a silk ribbon (in order to prevent ripping from friction like yarn would most likely do) I might even attach an elastic to go over her shoulders etc. eep, ill write about it. wish me luck!

| I thought so too, but they are really cute. My DH thinks I am crazy for everything I spend now. He would think I had went off the deep end if I spent that much on shoes that I know they would have off as quick as possible.
