Function and purpose: Specially designed dog boots provide support and stability for dogs with foot conditions such as dropped paw or arthritis, offering joint relief for dogs with injuries and neurological issues like spinal cord trauma and IVDD. Prevention and protection: Orthopedic dog shoes help protect the feet of dogs that engage in outdoor activities or need to stand for long periods, preventing damage to paw pads and toes. They also protect foot wounds or ulcers, help prevent further injury and infection, and distribute pressure across the feet to reduce discomfort caused by arthritis or muscle weakness. Structural design: Front leg dog splint shoes serve as an adaptive mobility aid for dogs with walking difficulties, featuring specially designed adjustable straps for a secure fit. The design lifts the dog's paw adequately, maintains a proper angle during movement, stays securely in place, and helps dogs with abnormal gait improve their posture. Materials: These dog paw braces are constructed with a sturdy sole and durable fabric. The non-slip sole provides stability and traction to protect sensitive paws. Reflective details on the shoelaces enhance visibility and safety in low-light conditions. Measurement Guide: Place the paw on a piece of paper and press down to mark the width and length, then measure the distance. Sizes are based on manual measurements of the inner dimensions of the shoe, so slight variations may occur. Properly fitted orthopedic dog shoes may help improve your dog's comfort and mobility but are not a substitute for professional veterinary care.
