Stories of Dogs challenged by slippery Wood and Tile Floors
Here, Power Paws customers describe how their dogs fared on their hardwood floors:
Sammy — G.I. & Sammy (Chow & Pit mix)
Beau lookin’ stylish in his Woodrow Wear socks we purchased for him at the Bay Area Pet Expo. He never even had an adjustment period. Once we put them on he was up and running. Now that he doesn’t slip on the hardwood floors, he has super traction around the corners. Better get out of the way, Beau’s comin’ at about 150 mph!! And he can sneak up on us now…Ninja Beau.
Debbie and Beau (Border Collie & Kelpie mix)
My 10-1/2 year old, Rupert, is in great shape, but was starting to have a little trouble with the hardwood floors. One day he did the “splits” when trying to get his ball, and scared the heck out of both of us! I finally found Power Paws with some research and ordered them, not expecting much.WOW! is all I can say. Rupert had no problem adapting to them immediately and literally stands there waiting for them to be put on in the morning now LOL.Thank you so much for the relief this has brought. I’ve already Tweeted and Facebooked this to all my friends with great response. Hope it brings you lots more business!!

The socks arrived today… They are terrific! My little man couldn’t navigate the hardwood and now he’s able to walk and even pick up a little speed. The socks are a Godsend. 🙂 He had his first meal in his socks, standing without sliding, enjoying every bite! Thank you!

Power Paws are a great product! The XS fit perfectly on my 17-pound Bichon. He does not fight me when putting them on and that is saying a lot as he does not like someone touching his paws. They were a slight challenge to put on the first time but it got easier each time and now it’s a breeze. They work great on the hardwood floors – he doesn’t slip at all. Once in a while I find a stray sock on the floor that somehow slips off, but he does not pull them off himself. Love them.

Just moved to a new home with all hardwood floors. Daisey would NOT walk on them because she slipped every time. She’s young, but they scare her. Not any more! — Craig
Check out a video of this beautiful Black Lab walking on hardwood floors in her Power Paws on our Videos page.
After an injury to her rear leg Blondie was unable to walk on our hardwood floors without her paws sliding out from under her. A friend suggested Power Paws while Blondie is healing. Power Paws work great. Blondie loves them and we’ll continue to use them after her recovery. — Eric

Alli loves her Power Paws. Wish I would have found them sooner!! They really help her on hardwoods!! (not really worried about the hardwoods) but I am worried about her front shoulders having to pull up the rest of her body. Traction really works!! If you are trying to make a decision on if you should buy these……..DO IT, Trust me your dog will love you for it!!! Thanks, Woodrow!

Thank you so much for this wonderful product. Alexander loves them! He had such a bad time slipping on the hardwood floors. I worried all weekend that he’d not be able to go to my father’s house (or to other places he loves) ever again. With Power Paws, he can! Thank you.

Our Vet gave us a pair of Power Paws to try, in hopes of increasing Sadie’s mobility on our hardwood floors. Sadie can stand up and lay down with much less pain and effort. Thanks for a great product.

Danielle is my Dalmatian puppy. I have a lot of hardwood floors in my house that she likes to run across. The marks her nails leave in the hardwood floors trouble me – the floors look bad already, and I haven’t budgeted for resurfacing the floor. I put Power Paws on her, and we both feel better! Dani loves them, and with them on, there are no new scratches. Yea!!
Patricia, Milpitas, CA
Caly says thanks for the socks. She isn’t slipping on the wood floor anymore! They just came today and I thought she’d fight wearing them, but we slipped them on and she started walking around just fine. These will really come in handy at the vet’s office where they have really, really slick floors! — Letha and Caly
Apollo, my two year old great Dane was having a hard time adjusting to our new hard wood floors but Power Paws gave him the confidence to get around, and no more falling, which for him is long way down. Apollo loves his socks and they match his eyes!

Your customer service goes well beyond my expectations! Attached is a picture of Reese, our 10 1/2 year old Rottie. Power Paws have made a big difference in her life. A few months ago, she started slipping all over the wood floor and she stopped sleeping in her bed because it is down a wood floor hallway. With Power Paws, she is sleeping in her bed again and more able to get around the house. I recommend Power Paws to owners of dogs with similar issues.

I am happy with this product. At first our dog wanted them off and was trying to chew on them but when I put her on the hard wood floor and she noticed she had traction & left them alone. I do have to pull them up quite a bit, but for an old catered to boxer, I am more than willing. Attached is a photo of our fashion forward boxer Stella.
