Highlighted Reviews
"They work excellent at keeping my dogs feet warm when itβs below freezing outside. Sometimes I have difficulty keeping them on but the Velcro straps work great. Excellent product for the price. Iβve had them for 2-3 years now."
"Socks are ok for indoors, but thin, for a border collie. They are too tight and too long. Wonβt stay up on legs. The rubberized material on paw area is a good idea but socks move around so the rubberized area is not under the paw, thus ineffective."
Bottom Line
These socks are good for keeping paws warm but check the sizing carefully and be prepared for possible durability issues.
