I have a standard poodle who needs to run uphill in snow (packed trail). Do these boots have enough traction to keep him from sliding in the snow?

I doubt the style that we bought would give good traction in packed snow, uphill. However, this company makes a variety of booties and I think there are some designed for snow.

No they don't have any tred for traction but, you can buy rubber tracking pads for shoes and apply it to the bottoms with a strong waterproof adhesive glue.

Yes they do, they resist well on rain so im guessing they will do good in snow.

Hello Lisa: I have an 85lb Samoyed who slips on wood and tile floors and he will not step on them without his boots on. As you know Florida does not have much snow...so I do not know if this will transfer from floors to snow. But he and I are well satisfied with the boots.Have a great and Blessed day.Kreutzer

Yikes. I don't think they will work. My pooch is a Toy Poodle, a little chubby at about 17 pounds and these are about perfect. If you know someone who is good with a sewing machine, these would provide a good pattern. I will say we have ordered these for 10 years now and they have been awesome! Huge lifesaver for MN winters. Good luck!

Yes - I wear these under snow boarding pants. The only time I have had it slip down was when I did not clamp it down very well. They may not be as stable as a knee pad that slips over you leg (ie, big elastic tube with a knee pad), but you can tighten these down pretty well. The only downside to the straps, is that they can rub if set too tight - the straps are approx 1/2 inch nylon and do not have any padding.

Yes I wore them in the rain since I was walking on muddy grounds even in the Spring complete with my gaters. Might have looked weird but kept me upright on unstable wet uneven sloped ground, that had no grass. Really worked fanstic and would give them 5 Stars not just for snow.

We used ours mainly on hard ground or pavement. Never had it in soft ground. I would think that it would bog down in mud or soft grass. Mountain trails and paths would probably be fine. We've really enjoyed ours. Have a Yorkie and a Maltese and there is plenty of room for both at once. Well made product. I don't think you would be disappointed. We do recommend it.

I would think so but not sure how the traction would be if it rained or snowed.

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

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 have some grip actually since the PAWS logo is embossed on one side. Trust me though, these are only a temporary solution and you should try to find yourself a more permanent option. I'm using Top Paw hard shoes for my dog now and as long as you do up the velcro extra tight, they have an amazing tendency to actually stay on. PAWZ rubbers don't have as good traction and they break down and crack quickly on salted roads and sidewalks - personally, I would spend the extra 10 or 20 bucks to get a longer lasting solution (in fact, that's exactly what i did do!) Amazon likely stocks all the dog shoes you could need, but you might want to check with the manufacturer's website to pick out the best size.

I would use the same ones I bought, the Ultra Paws Durable Dog Boot. My dog drags his hind paws too which makes the tip of the boots wear down so I bought the shoe goo to help protect them. I hope this helps you out.

Hmmm...I couldn't say for sure but my gut says yes. The spikes are a decent size and they worked great for pushing a car uphill with no sliding (but we were in packed snow). I'd give them a whirl. If they don't work, Amazon has a decent return policy. Good luck. Be sure to post how it goes!

Pretty sure they make a different version for running/ walking/climbing in snow that are more rugged,with cleats. Check out their website for more info."

They work for my standard poodle who is 50 pounds, but I wouldn't mind having the next size up to be honest. You may want to consider the large to be on the safe side.

I live in Californisa so that is not an issue here-I use it to prevent slipping-I think boots are the only sure way to protect your pets paws in dangerous temps

That depends on how big your dog's paws are. My 12-pound rat terrier/chihuahua's paws are about 1 and 1/4 inch across at the widest point, and the orange works OK over lightweight socks (I ordered Petego socks from Amazon). The orange seems tight when you put them on, but they stay on. We also tried the red, and they were too big. They flopped around (but they might be good for a dog with a lot hair on its paws). We recently discovered Ultra Paws Traction dog boots, and we really like them. They run big. I first ordered petite, and exchanged them for X-petite.

Depends on what you are using it for. If it's for traction they aren't very good. There isn't enough rubber on the bottom to help. Plus they constantly turn on the paws. I guess for just protection they aren't too bad. Didn't work for my old shiba inu who has slipping problems on ceramic tiles. Hope this helps

Yes I believe they are puncture resistant. However, they are a little stiff. If your dog is used to wearing booties, you should be OK. My dog is not use to wearing booties and therefore dances around on three feet trying to get them off. Funny watching her but at 65 lbs. I can't carry her to grass when you camp at a rally and are parked on hot pavement.
