Biting feet - need boots?

[Theresa and Doodle Dagny]

We were really cold in Minnesota today.  The current wind chill is -5 at 7PM.  I noticed a few times that after being outside for 5-10 minutes, during each play time, Dagny was biting at her feet.  She would run through the snow, roll around, then collapse and bite her feet.  Is she just playing or are her feet freezing? Regardless, I brought her in right away because I was worried of the latter.  I understand that there are winter boots or covers for dogs. Has anyone ever used these before? I'm hoping to get tips for purchasing. What was your experience?  Thanks!

Many of us use boots.  My only regret was not spending the money getting them sooner and...buying a cheap pair.

Rush... and order these.  They work.

Thank you!

You're very welcome. THANK YOU, from  your dog.   

By now you will see the sticker shock...but if you buy three cheaper pairs you will spend the same and.. they fall off.  Honestly-THESE WORK

LOL - I did look them up right away :)  It's true with most things isn't it?  Spend the money up front to avoid disappointment later!

Amazon has some better prices than what is listed.  Make sure you measure correctly.

Awesome! Thank you. I noticed some "mushing wax" too. That might be good for when she's old enough to run with :)

We had 3 inches of snow with temps around freezing.  Kate seemed ok and like eating it.  We keep dogs water outside because the piddle less inside (unless really cold).  I ordered a bowl with warmer.

Thank you Susan!  A bowl with a warmer sounds interesting!  I didn't even know those existed.

In my opinion, Muttluks are the best. Yarrow and Shiloh sometimes stop and bite at their feet. Actually they're trying to get rid of little balls of ice that build up on the hair between their paw pads. I try to keep that hair trimmed short this time of year rather than put boots on them. The wonderful dog I had before them wore her Muttluks every winter.

You guys are awesome :)  Thanks for the tip!
