| yes especially on hard floors such as tile..they can't get traction if the hair on the pads is too long |

| Well I cut her pad hairs... but it seems the foot is what is getting her.... she CANNOT STAND a groomer so I guess I will have to see if I can get them trimmed a bit w/out making her look ridiculous

| You might want to check her nails. If they get long they will begin to curl under and she will respond by walking on the back of her feet making her appear clumsy. The foot hair may also be an issue. |
