How to Buy Dog Booties

Dog booties can be a cute addition to a pet costume or a practical necessity for your furry friend during cold winter months. These booties come in all colors and sizes, so why not take Fido and Fluffy along for a little trip to find the perfect booties. Remember, your four-legged friend will need four little booties.

      Find your favorite pet supply shop and check to be sure that they allow you to bring animals inside with you. Remember that large pet supply chains will have the same merchandise at each store. So if you prefer a more personal touch rather than mainstream style, try a boutique pet store.

      Locate the clothing section of the store and look for bootie options. From galosh-style booties to knit feet covers, you should have many options available. You may even find matching outfits or hats to coordinate with your dog booties.

      Consider the use for the booties. If you need something to cover your dog's feet on hardwoods, the material will be different from those intended for outside use.

      Try on different types of booties, if your store will allow you to do so. If you cannot try the merchandise on your pooch, make an educated guess on the size and find your favorite color.

      Look online for booties if you cannot find any in stores that interest you. Just remember that you will have to gauge the size and styles based on Internet photos and size charts.
