How to Use

Fitting Instructions

• Measure Your Dog's Paw First: Before fitting, check the size chart to measure your dog's paw to ensure you are selecting the right size.
• Slip the Boot onto the Paw: Slide the boot gently over your dog's paw and pad, ensuring the paw sits fully inside and the fabric lies flat against the leg.
• Secure the Velcro Strap: Wrap the velcro strap around the leg just above the paw and adjust it for a comfortable, snug fit that does not cut off circulation.
• Check for Two-Finger Space: Always confirm the fit by checking that one to two fingers can slide comfortably between the strap and your dog's leg.
• Monitor the Healing Site: Each time the boot is removed, take a moment to check the healing area to track progress and ensure it remains clean and dry.
• Remove for Supervised Rest: When your dog is resting and can be monitored, brief periods without the boot allow the paw and skin to breathe and air out.

Additional Information

Precautions

• Select the Correct Size: Always refer to the size chart before buying to ensure the correct size is selected for your dog's paw and leg.
• Do Not Over-Tighten: Do not secure the velcro strap too tightly; always ensure two fingers can slide comfortably between the strap and the leg.
• Consult Your Veterinarian: Always follow your veterinarian's advice regarding post-surgery or post-injury recovery care and the use of protective footwear.
• Monitor for Irritation: If your dog shows signs of discomfort, swelling, or irritation around the application site, take the boot off right away and check the paw carefully.

Care and Maintenance

• Clean After Use: Clean the boot regularly during the recovery period according to the care instructions on the label to maintain hygiene and antimicrobial effectiveness.
