Duke's seem a little tight at top too, but he walks just fine and when he starts jumping in snow they stay on. I'm interested in other's experience too..,
my husband told me tonight that I need to get a different color for Duke. He said purple is not a masculine color and Duke is embarrassed to wear them! LOL...
That's how I've always felt with those boots! Too bad the large size only comes in purple. They work well though so Harley has had to deal with the blow to his image!
Thank you! They're all pictures of Duke...really makes a difference if he's outside or inside. As he gets older he gets more red. He was very light colored when we brought him home.
I hope they work for you. I've had the same pair for five years with two different goldens. They've held up great to Michigan winters and I wouldn't hesitate to buy another pair. No rips or tears and the velcro still has a really good hold.
The best part is watching your golden with them on when they are in the house. They do high steps and walk funny! I always laugh as soon as I put them on Josie. She isn't as comical as my previous golden, Emma was. But, as soon as they get out in the snow, the are ready to go.
I believe Josie's are a size Large. I originally ordered them for my last golden, Emma, who at the time was full grown at 95 lbs. Yes, she was a big female! They fit her perfectly and were easy to get on and off her massive paws, but never fell off, either.
I would say with Josie, who is full grown at 70 lbs, that they may be a size too large for her, but they have never fallen off and we have had very deep snow here in Michigan this winter. The double velcro straps are great because you can tighten them as snug as you need to get them.
I'm hoping they work! Duke was not happy with me last weekend bc I had the mut-lucks on him plus am switching him to gentle lead! He kept giving me very reproachful looks!
