Happy New Year! I hope everyone had a wonderful holiday. I have to show you what I gave my Golden Retriever for a gift. And before you think I’m weird for including my dog on my gift list, you have to understand that the first year I didn’t give him anything and he knew he was being left out. Ever got the evil eye from a Golden Retriever? It is designed to make you feel guilty. For. The. Rest. Of. Your. Life.
Anyway, this year it snowed a lot and Jake was getting snow and ice packed in his paws and between his toes. It took a long time to clean out the ice chunks and we would have to stop several times during our walks because it made him too uncomfortable. So I got him these:
Isn’t he adorable? He doesn’t think so. He thinks he looks dorky. It doesn’t help that many people would stop and ask what the hell was on my dog’s feet. Or laugh. Or both. Fortunately there were just as many people asking where I got the boots because they were having the same problems with their dogs.
Getting the boots on was not an easy task. Keeping them on made the walks twice as long! I’m sooo glad that snow has finally melted!
How cute and practical! We get the boots on our dog but he always manages to get them within 10 minutes.
We always get a gift for our dog too!
Susan, Jake’s boots has a strip of Velcro that supposed to keep the boots securely fastened. The moment Jake starts running, they fly off!
You give gifts to your dog? Whew, I’m glad I’m not the only one who does that.
