I guess this is the thread to ask this question as Gracie will soon be 12. She's doing pretty well but arthritic hips are giving her trouble. She is on a pain/inflammatory med for that, but she slips a lot on the floors or any smooth surface now. We have throw rugs all over the place and sometimes I feel like Sir Walter Raleigh because I have to lay down a towel or anything fabric to convince her it's safe to walk. Then she gathers her courage and makes a dash over the "offending" surface. I was wondering if anyone has used those gripper-type booties for their dogs and if so did they work and did your dog tolerate them? She definitely wants to go for her walks outdoors but she doesn't like the porch surface either. Anything for my old grande dame.
