Winter in the city means one thing: salt-covered sidewalks everywhere you turn.
PawZ rubber boots offer straightforward protection for your dog's paws against salt, ice, and freezing pavement. Unlike traditional fabric booties, these are made from natural rubber that's waterproof, lightweight, and flexible enough to move with your dog's paw.
Why We Stock Them
Most dog boots are bulky, complicated to put on, and come off mid-walk. PawZ are different. They slip on like a balloon, stay secure during walks, and are disposable—so when they wear out or get lost in a snowbank, you've got backups.
They're biodegradable, made from natural rubber, and come 12 to a pack. That means you're covered for multiple walks without the stress of lost boots derailing your routine.
Finding the Right Size
PawZ come in seven sizes, from Tiny (for toy breeds and small paws) to X-Large (for big dogs with big feet). We keep a sizing guide at the store and can help you measure to get the right fit. The boots should be snug but not tight—they stretch to conform to your dog's paw.
Available sizes: Tiny, XX-Small, X-Small, Small, Medium, Large, X-Large
When to Use Them
These boots work year-round, but they truly shine in winter when salt and ice make every walk a potential hazard. They also protect against hot pavement in summer, rough terrain on hikes, and can keep healing paws clean and dry.
A Note on Fit
Like any paw protection, there's an adjustment period. Some dogs take to boots immediately; others need a few tries to get comfortable. Start with short indoor sessions, use positive reinforcement, and give your dog time to figure out this new sensation. Most adapt within a walk or two.
