While looking for great new products for our favorite family members (the furry and four-legged), we came across a great item: Ruffwear Grip Trex all- terrain paw wear for the canine climbers. A how-to video made measurements easy. "They come in sizes according to the width of a dog's paws: 1.50", 1.75", 2.00", 2.25", 2.50", 2.75", 3.00", and 3.25"," wrote Allison Miles, community and events specialist from Ruffwear, in her email to HNGN. "We have found that measuring and sizing according to paw width is the best way to correctly and consistently fit dog boots."
If you like taking your dog on long walks, hiking and camping trips or your pup is always part of your family vacations, you might have considered getting your friend's feet some protection. We did too, which is why we reviewed Ruffwear's updated Grip Trex boots with the help of our sweet test pooch, Kalisi.
Our final decision? Two opposable thumbs up! (Dogs don't have thumbs, so we did it for them.) "I would recommend them to dogs who have worn something on their feet in the past [or] don't mind having something on their feet," Masilotti said.
The boots would be excellent for dogs who like to head outdoors on sand, hot pavement or mud. If it is a dusty or rainy day, you won't have to worry about your house getting dirty when your mutt comes back in. If your dog spends a lot of time outdoors, these doggy booties can save those delicate paw pads some "Ruffwear" and tear.
