What Top Dog Says About Sports PAWks Indoor | Outdoor Dog Socks
PAWks anti-slip dog socks work well both indoors and outside. They feature an anti-slip wrap around silicone sole to keep the socks securely on your dog's feet. Stretchy cotton/spandex makes them ideal for both indoors and out. PAWkz dog socks prevent your dog from scratching the floor. The rubber sole protect their paws and your floor.
These are great for keeping sand off paws and for a quick jaunt in the heat. If you are going to use them for cooling down their paws, we recommend adding a gauze pad to absorb the heat. It is important to keep your dog’s claws trimmed in order to prevent damaging tears. Initially, your dog may prance while wearing the socks. After a few walks, your dog should become accustomed to the feeling and walk naturally.

To get a front paw measurement have your doggie stand with their front paw on a piece of paper. Ensuring the dog's weight is on the paw, draw a line to the left and right of the widest part of the paw. Now you can simply measure the distance between the two lines to get the paw width measurement.
For the best fit, trim your dog's nails before putting on the Pawks. If you are between sizes, we recommend the larger size. Dogs may prance when first wearing PAWks. Distract the dog with their favorite toy or treat until they get used to them.

Boot Training Tips
Training your dog to wear boots or socksis more about patience on your part rather than the dog’s. It will take some time, especially if your pooch has an issue with someone handling his feet. Work slowly and at your dog’s pace.
- Have your dog in a standing position (get some help from another person if your dog won’t stand) on a non-slip area—carpet works best.
- Slip a sock on one of his feet.
- Take the sock off and reward your dog with a small treat.
- The next day, repeat the process, only place the sock on a different foot. Don’t forget to reward your dog.
- Repeat this process each day using a different foot. Once you’ve accomplished placing the sock on each foot individually, try putting socks on two paws at the same time. Each day, put the socks on two different paws.
- Eventually work your way up to placing all four socks on your dog’s paws at the same time.
- Once your dog is comfortable with wearing all four socks because he knows he’ll receive a tasty treat when he’s done.
