Stinker as in those kids use to put on things like notebook and stuff? The only issue I had was with Zoey. When I first started walking her as a puppy, her paw pads got scruffed up to the point where it was leaving small blood tracks on the kitchen floor when we came back.
I made a home made booties which worked pretty well. But then I started using musher's secret and walked her less. Which is why I bought the backpack to carry her. After several months, I think her pads got harden(?) enough and now doesn't scruff.
But she still wants to be carried most of the walks. LOL
