My Pom gets cold feet in the wintery slush. I'm hoping to get these for Christmas. Are these boots waterproof?

No, they aren't waterproof, but they will repel snowmelt for a while. After walking my dogs, I lay the boots on the edge of the heating register to dry; they dry quickly. One pair usually lasts all winter, but the affordable price of these boots allows me to buy extra pairs. I like them the most for the ease of putting them on, but they are definitely not the boots to buy to walk in slush for any period of time.

No, they are not waterproof. They are made of felt material. They are good if it's dry out.

That small circle on the bottom is, but the whole rest of the shoe is fleece material. I would not get these for walking in slush! They will get wet!

No, they are not. They are made of black fleece with a plastic "skid" pad. These will definitely absorb water in wet conditions. They work well in dryer conditions, to protect from salt and other road chemicals in the winter, and keep feet a little warmer but, they get wet easily.

Not being a dog, it is hard to say for sure...but, imagine wearing latex gloves and making snowballs. There probably will be some protection from the cold but the main protection is from the icy water and snowballs between the toes. They definitely help keep the dogs feet drier and safe from the elements.

No, I wear them at home, inside, during winter months. They are very warm, but not waterproof.

I have only used them in snow, but I believe they are watertight. The rubbery outer covering seems to completely cover the glove.

Doubt they are waterproof. Plus, they don't work anyway. We bought ours for skiing and returned them nearly immediately. They don't work well.

They're pretty waterproof in my experience so you don't have to try and avoid watering over them. I haven't had any issues through the winter rains either.

These boots definitely kept the water out for my purposes ( tide pooling on the rocky Northern California Coast). I had my doubts, but the combo of these boots plus some wool nearly-knee high socks, kept my normally cold feet warm and dry. One thing that I avoided was trying to enter pools of water that were taller than the boots. After adjusting/tightening the boots, I made sure the tallest body of water I entered was approximately the same height as the boots. I didn't have a problem with keeping dry because I kept that in mind. Hope that helps. Good luck in your adventures!

I don't wear wool socks, so I can't say whether they are warmer or not. But I can say that they are extremely warm even in freezing weather. I wore them with my fur-lined snow boots and was very happy with them. I hpe this helps.

yes they are. I have had for 8 months and no problems thru the snow and salt this winter.

I am not sure, I know that the booties work great in the rain and snow. Try pawz.com

I am in the Caribbean and I purchased them to slog around in the muck on the farm. I have no idea how they would be in the snow.

I am going to go to next size smaller for my miniature Schnauzer this year. The "soles" were good for about 100 miles of walking then wore through. I only used them during the winter months 2-3 miles a day for 3-4 months. This year I'm going to cover the bottoms with silicon to try and extend the life of the boots. Best boots I've found so far.

The leggings end in neoprene stocking feel, so separate boots are required. I have used them in some very cold water, and would recommend something like sweatpants under them, as the breathable fabric passes cold through very quickly. I have used them since about September of last year, and have yet to notice any water intrusion....

They were a gift for my son who lives where it doesn't get terribly cold. I wear Smartwool socks when hiking, and in cold weather (colder than 30 degrees) I wear them with thinsulate lined boots.

yes! very good o ice. Just enough traction. If you have snow pack on top too, they will pack snow but clean out very quickly. They never slip off of my Bogs and are easily cleaned of mud/ice with the tap of a wooden stick or broom handle. I just leave them on my ice fishing boots year round.

They are durable! I hav.e taken them dirtbiking, snowboarding and everyday at the gym. I have gotten them sweaty and dropped them in the dirt and stepped on them and they still work fine. I do not know if they are waterproof, i would doubt it or it would be advertised

I think these boots would work well, as long as you fasten them securely. My dog wore them all winter long (in deep snow too) and we only lost one boot all season. I know it's probably because we didn't get that one on very securely. If you're only using on hind paws, you'll have two extra for backups.
