Granite Gear Dog Clog Trail Shoes - Set of 4

these are really big in size, I have big German Shorthaired Pointers and the large was sloppy loose on them. also the formed "paw bed" was stiff. I've tried several different styles of boot for hunting in thorny western Oklahoma...these are better suited for a city dog on a snowy sidewalk. Sorry but returning these.

very wide , sizes run big, my dog has narrow feet, put socks on your dog first to see if they will accept a pair of boots. my dog doesn't like his feet messed with so its trouble trying to get them on

Bought these at the store for my 2 y.o. vizsla that had damaged his pad on a long hike. He was gimping around for 3 weeks on it off and on 3 legged so I had to do something. We first tried wrapping his foot and he just carried it in the air. We knew then he had to have more than 1 wrapped so he would have to put that foot down sometime. Bought size MEDIUM and tried them on. They fit well, it's a bit tricky to maneuver the foot into the boot because you have to flex the foot first to go in, then back to reach the toe area. The velcro works well and it's nice it has reflective tape on it. The dog did not like wearing them initially but after a day of using them, he is putting weight on that foot again and running well in them. I like the thick sole (rubberized). I do not like that the boots are not individually sized so you have left/right and front/back. The back boots need to be narrower or a smaller size for this set to work. So buy 2 sets, use 2 boots from each set for front or back and you'll have a set of backups. Will have to update later if we still love them. So far the dog is tolerating them well. I do notice that with heavy running/sprinting/playing that sometimes a boot will twist around or the tongue of the boot will end up inside the velcro part... I am going to try using baby socks over his feet first and then adding the boot. I think this will add another layer of padding and hopefully stop the boot from rotating (though it doesn't get messed up if you're careful when you put the boot on and adjust it). His feet are about 2.25-2.5 inches wide (front feet). Medium worked for us.

Try though we did, there was NO keeping these on our 45-lb. pit bull mix. (And GETTING them on her was a whole different story. The design just isn't great in terms of fitting a paw in easily)

I think the major flaw is in the way the clogs close; you've just got a strip of velcro to wrap around the leg, and even when the boots are a good fit (size M was perfect for ours), all it takes is a couple bounds and the shoes come flying off.

So I did read all the other reviews, but my guy is an American Bulldog and weighs 98lbs and has huge paws. I thought an XL would work, definitely NOT! Size down with these. Also nicely made, but my guy want nothing to do with them because they are so chunky.
