Why Dogs Need Socks
“Thank you so much for this wonderful product. Alexander loves them! He had such a bad time slipping on the hardwood floors.”
- Lisa, San Diego, CA
Each package of Power Paws contains two pair (4 socks) total. Depending on your dog’s specific need, Power Paws can be worn on just the back paws, or on all four paws at once. Power Paws can be used…
For traction help for senior dogs, you may need just one pair for the back paws, or your dog may need traction on all four paws. Power Paws give dogs with hip dysplasia and arthritis the power to stand, the power to go, and the power to stop!
For dogs who slip on floors. If your young, middle-aged or aging dog runs through the house and skids on your floors, you should put Power Paws on all four feet. This is also useful for dogs that have lost the confidence to walk on hardwood. Power Paws make movement easier, increasing your pet’s quality of life.
To protect against scratches on hardwood floors, Power Paws should be put on all four feet. Refinishing hardwood is expensive and time consuming. Prevent nail marks with Power Paws.
As a fashion accessory, definitely put Power Paws on all four paws. All dogs enjoy looking good, and some dogs dress up daily. Power Paws come in colors and designs that compliment every dog’s style and personality.
For outdoor use, Power Paws have proven to be quite useful in summer and winter conditions. For winter snow and ice, we suggest spraying Power Paws with a couple coats of waterproof spray. Let them dry completely, then enjoy the outdoors with your dog! For summer conditions, even the hottest pavement does not affect the grip, and the sock is thick enough to protect paws from heat. Power Paws dog socks are machine washable.
To protect wounds on paws , just put one Power Paw sock on the injured paw, or on all four paws for consistency. Power Paws are so soft and comfortable, dogs tend to leave them (and the affected foot) alone. You may be able to remove the e-collar from your dog’s head – a benefit for dog and owner! Several vets and pet owners have achieved favorable results.
To help prevent your dog from slipping in moving vehicles, mobile homes, RVs and boats, Power Paws help to give dogs stability and grip. On a boat, they also protect the teak floors from scratches!
Dog Socks vs. Dog Shoes
Power Paws dog socks, like your socks, were designed for indoor use. Power Paws are designed for comfort. The cotton material used for Power Paws is light and soft, and even dogs who hate having things on their feet are not bothered by them! The special traction blend will not get hard and does not contain grit. The elastic stretches to keep them in place. They also provide airflow around your dog’s feet, and are machine washable! Power Paws are also eco-friendly (made only of cotton and elastic).
Dog shoes and boots are intended for rigorous outdoor activities and protection from the elements, so a more rugged product is required. Dog shoes and boots are much sturdier than socks, and are secured on the dog’s feet with straps, Velcro, buckles or other fasteners to assure they remain in place. They are made of plastic or nylon materials, and tend to be waterproof or water resistant (which is good for puddles but not for airflow).
The package arrived today! Rosie, my 6 1/2 yrs. old Shepherd with hip dysplasia is normally very difficult to fit for shoes, but these fit right out of the package. They’re wonderful. The rubber traction keeps her from sliding on my laminate flooring, and they really make her tail wag! (*_*)
