When are Dog Socks Right?

Dog socks are right if your dog needs a little extra grip and traction, particularly when getting up from lying down, finds walking on wooden floors difficult because of rear leg weakness, or wants more paw comfort.

 

How Will Dog Socks Help?

Non slip dog socks are great if your dog has rear leg weakness, particularly arthritis or hip dysplasia which means they can’t control their back legs very well if they’re on a slippery floor surface. The non-slip gives your dog more ability to grip, and helps them stand up from a lying-down position.

 

How to Pick the Right Dog Socks?

You will need non-slip dog socks if your dog has rear leg weakness from various conditions such as DM, arthritis, hip dysplasia or IVDD, or aging, and is having to deal with slippery floors.

If your dog has a paw injury, socks will help keep the wound clean, and can discourage nibbling or licking of it.

If your dog is a greyhound and has a pair of Hunnyboots, Hunnyboots socks can make it easier to put the paw in the boot. They also mean that the boots don’t need so much washing, only the socks. Hunnyboots socks have no grip so must only be worn inside boots.
