GREYHOUND POWER PAWS ADVANCED by Woodrow Wear for hare-footed dogs (the paw is longer than wide) These Power Paws have a reinforced toe. Size Large is typically for large Greyhounds (75-90 pounds) or Standard Poodles. The Medium size is typically for small Greyhounds, Whippets, Aussies and Standard Poodles (40-70 pounds). Our Vet recommended these for our aging Greyhound, as he is starting to have weakness in his hind legs and slips on smooth flooring. Four socks to a package.
If you have a dog with regular "round" paws and are interested in Power Paws for them, please use the "Contact Seller" link to find out how.
Power Paws no slip socks for dogs have many uses for preventing your older or senior dog from sliding on slippery floors (their primary use), to paw protection for wounds or from very hot or very cold (snow or ice) surfaces, protecting your hardwood floor from scratches and fashion. Because Power Paws are dog socks not dog shoes, they are easier to care for and frequently more comfortable for many dogs
Measuring your dogs foot
PLEASE look only at the pad group on the bottom of the paw.
Do NOT include nails, hair, side or back of the foot, across the top of the foot, or up the leg.
Remember to check front and back paws because on many breeds they can be different.
The size guide (above) and the greyhound footprint size guide will help you with the size determination.
Large: W = 1.75-2.0" (4.45-5.0 cm), H = 2.5-3.0" (6.35-7.6 cm)
Medium: W = 1.6-1.75" (4.25-4.45 cm), H = 2.25-2.6" (5.75-6.8 cm)
40-70# Med; 75-90# Large
The size and weight chart above will help you choose the proper size. THE PAW SIZE GUIDE WILL HELP WITH MEASURING YOUR DOG'S PAWS (see picture) – just print at 8-1/2 x 11 and place your dog’s paw on the page to see what size you need.
Size/Weight/Breed guide based on averages. Power Paws look small, but do stretch a lot, and a loose fit will slide around the foot and not provide traction! Each package contains 4 socks
Power Paws may appear too small at first. They are designed to stretch. If the size is right, the elastic will stretch and Power Paws will stay on when playing, climbing stairs, walking, etc. A proper fit is a snug, stretched sock allowing the elastic to hold the sock in place. If the sock is too small, you will not be able to get it on. If the sock is too large, it will turn (so the grip ends up somewhere other than the bottom of the sock), or it may fall off completely.
Please be aware that these are guides, and not guarantees. Just as people of the same size and weight don’t necessarily have the same size feet, dogs of the same breed and approximate weight do not necessarily have the same size feet. *Note: If the size is not right, we will exchange it.
Power Paws can be used for traction help for senior dogs, you may need just one pair for the back paws, or your dog may need traction on all four paws. Power Paws give dogs with hip dysplasia and arthritis the power to stand, the power to go and the power to stop.
If your young, middle-aged or aging dog runs through the house and skids on your floors, you should put Power Paws on all four feet. This is also useful for dogs that have lost the confidence to walk on hardwood floors. Power Paws make movement easier, increasing your pet's quality of life.
To protect against scratches on hardwood floors, Power Paws should be put on all four feet. Refinishing hardwood floors is expensive and time consuming. Prevent nail marks with Power Paws.
