| Glad that your baby is ok. Ive seen stories where pups had blisters,ouch. I wear sandles most of the time in the summer so I slip one off and put my foot on the pavement to check the temp before putting my baby down. Ive seen little shoes at Petco as well. All Dogs Boots sells REALLY cute shoes for furbabys. Mina has a pair of sandles to try for the summer. |

| Last summer we had an extended period of time when the temps were in the high 90's. I would take Gracie on her walks in the early morning before it got too hot and then again in the evening after things had cooled down quite a bit. She really needs her walks so we had to rearrange our waking times. We do go to an area where there are trails and a lot of trees so that helps a lot, too. Your poor little guy might still have sore feet. I hope he feels better today. |

| poor lil guy. sounds like you took care of the problem wisely, I always feel the ground bf I walk the girls bc we just never realize how hot it can be for them. Not only on their paws, but you have to think that their little bodies are closer to the ground so they are going to feel the heat more.

| Hmmm about the booties, please correct me if I'm wrong, but don't dogs perspire through their paw pads? You're not supposed to cover them when it's hot no? Like, wouldn't they overheat or something? But then again, it's only for a short period of time... It gets pretty hot here in LA too, not as hot as Arizona, but in the summer time, even when we go out @ 7:30 pm, the ground is still very warm, hot to the touch. I always touch the ground to test it 1st & wait til it cools down, but they don't understand why & keeps barking @ me loll.

| Poor little guy. Glad he's ok. I never thought there would be summer shoes for dogs, I always just think of snowboots. Need to check the links.

Furbutts = LOVE Donating Member Moderator | I remember when I first moved to AZ and my first summer here. One day, I wanted to go out to the end of the driveway to grab the paper and OMG, my feet!!! ON FIRE! I ran/hopped so I wouldn't burn them and I could not even believe how much it hurt. I then realized the temp and DUH, hello. The pavement/concrete/pavers etc get SO hot here in AZ in the summer. I see people carrying their dogs from their car into the vet, for example, so their paws don't touch the ground. It gets really bad. Talk to Karen of All Dog Boots - she'll get you set up .
