I don't think that they are really talking about the dogs that *need* these extra accessories. I think they are more or less addressing the issue of people buying them because they don't know any better - they think the booties are cute or perhaps that their dog would be better off in them.
My golden retriever get's snow stuck in her paws and it can be quite painful for her, does she *need* booties - no. She just needs me to better manage the hair between her pads.
