Of course, the small is too big, but that velcro strip idea would keep them on. I like them because the snow melting chemicals can't penetrate the rubber. He didn't mind them at all.

My Mom lost a poodle years ago to rock salt, so I definitely don't think it's cruel for use as protection. For fashion, if the dog doesn't mind, do what you want in my opinion.

I'd never heard of Pawz, but they sound intriguing. Do you find them slippery in the snow? I found this link online. They are more expensive than the price you quote, so it's probably worth shopping around.
