A woman made some thick, double fleece booties for me one time and they didn’t stay on as well. Dogs also weren’t comfortable with the thicker booties.
As for salty areas, I pick them up. I don’t want them eating stuff on salty snow sidewalks anyway. Our roads have never been a problem because city uses gravel. The only salt comes from the little they put in the gravel to keep it from freezing. |
Thanks for the tips on the booties! Will look into getting some white elastic Velcro. I wish I could just pick mine up during the winter, but everywhere we walk there's salt!
