Further to my post about bitter apple spray , think I may need to consider doggy boots .
Can anyone recommend any good ones that can be worn outside and are therefore waterproof for this miserable weather :rolleyes:
They would also need to be fairly sturdy and not easily taken off by Gus . Wet weather seems to make his itchy paws worse plus I dont want infection setting in from where he has licked them . It always seems to be one particular paw too.
Anyone ???

I was actually wondering whether boots might help Purdey - unhappily for her, we have changed from carpet to tiled floors through most of the house - she doesn't like staying in the dining room all the time & if anyone has any experience of whether boots would give her extra "traction" I would appreciate it!

Hi Margot,

Bree has the same problem as Purdey, as regards 'traction' on un-carpeted floors. Someone on here did mention a paw wax, which aids the traction, sorry I can't help with names etc, as I'm still looking for it myself; but if Purdey is anything like Bree, she will not tolerate boots :(

Best Wishes

That's what I'd be afraid of!  I did try pad wax - apart from making the floor look even more disgusting than usual :( - all it meant was that Purdey collected lots of fluff on her feet - so that was a no-go too.   Think I'll have to have the floor covered in a tasteful carpet of vet bed for Purds! :D :D

Mmm.... hadn't thought about those waxy paws picking up fur and fluff, nor the waxy pawprints on the floor  :(  :(

Oh well! Back to the drawing board :D
