Have a 60lb. Extra furry labradoodle. What is the right size? Also do these irritate a lot of dogs? I've tried boots before and he wouldn't walk.

X-Large is the right size even though they'll look too small. They do stretch a lot and basically similar to a really heavy duty balloon. Do they irritate? It depends on the dog. I have two goldendoodles and one would not put up with them on his feet, while the other ignores them as long as he is preoccupied. Hope this helps.

Mine is a 100 lb German Shepherd. The largest size worked for him. Easy to put on and they stayed on. Didn't bother him at all.

I got for a undersized Jack Russell Terrier who has short toenails cause we walk. Size 2 fit feet, but back legs are shaped different from front. I plan to take hand stitch to narrow the ankle a little. I also thought of getting hair runner bands for rear boots. There seems to be some difference w/sizing if made China or others. I looked at sizes at a pet store for small and could tell I would need X-small. Remember the toenails length make a difference. My dog will wear. Heat.of concrete and allegories picked up from dew on grasses.

I have 2 medium size dogs, each about 55lbs. each. Their feet are same. I would maybe try a smaller size since your dog is only 20lbs. Size or weight does not matter. Just paw size. I hope this helped.

I found that the boots need to be pretty snug to stay on. I use mine for hiking, but have heard that others have had good results with them. They come four to a pack, so if your dog will tolerate them, you may only use two at a time on the back paws. My 3 year old was uncertain with them on at first, but settled in to them and forgot he was wearing them.

I would ask your Vet. They may protect from sharp or rough item where she walks, but some of the comments indicated irritation caused by the boots. My dog did not experience any problem with the boots (120 pound German Shepard). I would be careful with the measurements - the ones I purchased I sized for Forrest's front paws (significantly larger than the rear). The straps allowed the rear to hold on OK. Dave

I have Lhasa Apsos. One is 18lbs and the other is 10lbs. Both use the orange color. As new "boots", they are tight. You need to pull and stretch a few times as they are worn to make them a little bigger or flexible for your dog. Stretch them lengthwise. The cuff or opening you want to keep tight so they don't slip off. I have lost a few as they get old(6 months). My dogs have gotten accustomed to using these in winter and summer. No snow packed between digits and protects their feet from the salt which they will try to lick off. I recommend using these 100%.

I bought a large/XL for my dog who measures 31 inches in that area. The L/XL should work perfectly for you and your lab. It really does reduce pulling. I tried going back to my dog's choke collar once last week and it was an awful walk again....me being dragged around and "yelling" at him to stop pulling and heel! I couldn't wait to get back home and get the spoon halter back on. Happy hiking...should make it a lot safer for you, especially on steeper downhill slopes.

I have a pug that weighs about 22 pounds and he wears a small. I would think an extra small would be better for your dog.

I bought a medium for my 65 pound lab/hound mix, but she has dainty feet. I know Shepherds can have quite wide paws and if this is the case you may be happier with the large. Wonderful product though we use ours often and are so happy with it.

I would go smaller... My Greyhound has 2.5 inch wide feet and I thought a large would work... Not so much, they were like flippers! He wears a small comfortably. I am not sure how the length of the foot would effect the sizing though. I would buy both sizes and return the ones that don't fit so good. I Highly Recommend these boots though!

I bought a Lg for my 57# Labradoodle who is tall and narrow like a poodle. I bought an XL for my 64# Labradoodle who is stockier and wider like a lab. Both fit correctly. The L is almost not long enough for the one dog but fits her narrower chest fine.

Just measure the black pads of their feet from front to back on front paws and rear paws. It's best to get them a little larger than what they measure. I got large for my dog, but should have gotten X-large or 4-inch.

Both of my dogs are furry. I have to admit, it is not easy to put them on bc the fur gets caught on the non-slip pads, but it's not that bad. You just have to adjust and smooth out the fur a little after the bootie is on.

Dear Jenna,We sometimes would use one boot when our GSD's pads would get cut from rough rock in Hawaii. We had hardwood floors, and the boots have enough grip for walking. Our dog (really he is our son's service dog) was used to having his pads massaged, so he did not mind the boots. The boots will come off when running, but stay on most of the time. I bought these because it was the preferred boot for military working dogs in Afghanistan. Hope this helps, and best wishes as you care for your fur friend.very sincerely,Stephen

They should fit snug around the leg, you should be able to stick a finger between the boot and the leg. I'm sure you can ask your local vet.
