29. Dog Shoes and Booties with Poor Fit

Dog shoes and booties are sometimes necessary for harsh weather or rough terrain, but a poor fit can lead to discomfort, blisters, or even tripping accidents. Always choose purpose-designed footwear that fits your dog’s paws snugly but comfortably. Monitor your pet while wearing booties and remove them if you notice any irritation.
