Jimmy has been chewing his foot owing to grass seed allergy

Russell, Jimmy's owner writes

"I confirm the safe arrival of the dog boots. They are brilliant!

Jimmy has had no problem with them at all. The sizing is perfect and I've been able to cut down the length a shade to ensure they fit as per your instructions.

Suffice to say they have done the job. Jimmy had been chewing just one of his front paws which we think was a grass seed allergy associated with the hot weather. This only happened when he was quiet and not doing anything like at night.

Because the boots are so easy to put on (rather that the sock and selloptape method we were using) he slips into it without a problem. The boot stops the chewing and his paw is back to normal again.

Excellent product."

Cheryl, Sweepy's owner writes:

I would just like to say how successful the boots have been for Sweepy our Cocker Spaniel. We have used them recently to prevent him scratching a serious skin complaint. I orginally purchased them in desperation as he continually bit his paws causing infection and ended up in circles trying to resolve this. The boots actually trained him and he stopped doing this very quickly.

The boots have saved used pounds on Vet bills (and his life as the Vet believed there was no resolution to his problems at one point!) We are eternally grateful for a successful outcome and a better quality of life for Sweepy.

Angela Chuter, Snap's owner writes: "Having had a dog with a sore paw that required protection, I realized that I needed to have something immediately to hand for emergencies and decided to purchase the Pro-Active Paws dog boots.

Within a few weeks of having the boots, Snap, one of our collies, tore a large hole in his side, we think he did this running through woodland and probably gouged himself on a low branch or something. The wound needed 9 stitches and as it was located just behind his shoulder he could reach it nicely with his back foot for a good scratch. Not ideal when you want to keep the stitches in! I put one of the dog boots on his back foot so when he did scratch he didn't damage the wound. This worked well, the boot stayed on and he ignored it, so must have found it comfortable.

So, another success story for dog boots, not only will they protect the paw, but they will also protect the dog from his paws!"
