We tried them on Derby and he hated those more because of the way they stuck to his feet.
The shoes we bought him came in actual sizes (0 to 8) and TRUST ME, they came super TINY. If you see the size 0's OMG lol
Here is the website of the shoes - and the Shoes list where you can order.
They are located in California, and we got ours in Toronto, Ca so they are found everywhere
EPIKS Shoes - EPIKS.net
We got ours at dog store for $10 cheaper than the site, and for an extra $30 you could buy a pack that allowed you to get a single replacement dog shoes if you lost one. We chose just to get the pack for the cheaper price assuming we aren't going to lose one LOL
Keep in mind too that if it your dog's first time wearing shoes they will freak out a bit... some dogs are more comfortable then others, so it is normal for them to spaz. However, once they get use to them it won't be so bad. Just don't leave them on too long at first.
As posted on their site Quote: Most dog shoes focus on safety or style, which both contribute to the general comfort for a dog. Epiks unique design offer safety and style while providing maximum comfort.
Thermoplastic Rubber (TPR) sole is Skid-free, flexible, insulates against cold and surfaces, and is the same material used in high-end running and basketball shoes.
Because of the reliable heavy-duty zipper and elastic stitching EPIKS will stay on tight-even while running. Lightweight features make it 30% lighter than shoes of the competition so it won’t weigh down the dog’s step or alter musculature.
Distinctive design gives it a look unlike any other dog shoe with many of the same advanced features of an athletic shoe.Handsome microsuede upper portion resists the elements and comes in a variety of attractive colors combinations. Built with the technology of a human shoe but made just for dogs.
Unlike other dog shoes EPIKS utilized the differences in the shapes and angles of a dog’s front and hind legs to create separate designs for both sets of paws. EPIKS patented sole and angle (US patent No. 11.189.270) will roll the dog’s paw resulting in a more comfortable and balanced stride. The secret to EPIKS lighter than air stride is the special Memory Foam insole combined with the TPR sole to reduce the load on a dog’s legs and energize with each step. | |
