Best Greyhound Boots & Socks

"My greyhound limps on hard services after chipping a bone at the bottom of her foot. What would you recommend?"

It sounds like your greyhound needs as much comfort and padding in their boot as possible, we would recommend looking at the Therapaw boot which have medical-grade thickness in the sole. Find Therapaw boots here.

"My greyhound Nettle has just had surgery on his huge corn and he is still quite lame. We walk on uneven gravel and pavements. What greyhound boots would you recommend my dog"

We would recommend Nettle starts with the original Hunnyboots as these are light so Nettle will adapt quickly. They have a good thick rubber sole so you greyhound will find them good protection and comfortable on pavements and on uneven ground. They are easy to wash and dry as they are made from the same material as human trainers.

"My whippet was hobbling with his corn and I was keen to help him. I had previously bought a Therapaws boot before I found your site. It did the trick but unfortunately was only on the once and came off and was lost on the first wearing! I have to say that the Hunnyboots are a very much better fit and he’s walking without a limp which is nothing short of magic!"

This is great to hear, and we're glad you're getting on well with the Hunnyboots.

Feedback on a greyhound wearing Traction socks:

"We’ve tried several different types of socks and boots for our greyhound and this is by far the best. He suffers with corns and requires extra padding under his paws. I ordered XL size which allows me to add extra padding inside. He tolerates it well and it stays on!"

"Wilson my greyhound has lupoid onychodystrophy. What would you recommend?"

For Wilson, it would be good to start using Hunnyboots. They will give him great protection against any further injury to his nails and paws, which lupiod onychodystrophy does.

"My energetic large whippet with a persistent rear corn needs boots. What can you recommend for my whippet?"

It sounds like your whippet needs protection for the long term so it would be best to look at Hunnyboots as these can be worn daily, while out on walks, or in the house. Whippets mostly fit in a Medium. The Velcro straps and YKK zip mean they fit snug and well, so when your whippet runs around they won't fall off.

"My lurcher, so a greyhound cross, weighing about 32kg. He has recently been diagnosed with corns which are making his walks a bit miserable for him. I hope you can help. What would you recommend"

Lurchers fit into Hunnyboots as they have the same 'hare' shape paw. This is a narrow and long paw. We would recommend looking at the X Large size.

"I was wondering if we could have some advice on a pair of shoes for our 5-year-old greyhound? We were advised after a recent vet's visit that our dog has the beginnings of a corn and to prevent surgery should wear shoes."

Thanks for the email and yes Hunnyboots are the best. I would recommend you stick to the ‘original’ Hunnyboots, I find our customers have a much better time. They are lighter and more comfortable. For sizing, you need to measure from the longest toe nail to the back of the last pad. Large and X Large are the most popular sizes for greyhounds. Feel free to send over your measurements and I can always double check.
