VIP Universal Booties, 4 pcs

VIP Universal booties protect the dog's paws even in demanding conditions: frost, snow, ice.

The booties are made of durable material also used in work gloves, so they are very durable for light fabric booties. VIP Universal booties are mainly intended for use in snowy weather.

Universal booties are seamless and the material is flexible. The elastic, 25 mm wide velcro fastening on the booties keeps them securely in place. Sold in a package of 4 pieces. The booties are available in four different sizes.

• previously sold as: Dragråttan Universal VIP
• seamless construction
• material is flexible but strong fabric
• flexible, 25 mm wide velcro tightening holds the booties perfectly in place
• sold in a package of 4 pieces
• a longer version of the same bootie is also available: VIP Universal Long
• mainly intended for use in snowy weather, the durability of use on melted ground or e.g. sanded surfaces is naturally clearly shorter. There is a separate rubber covered version of the Universal booties for the cold ground.
• Durability is also affected by the type of exercise. In steady running (such as with sled dogs), the booties usually last longer than in exercise where the dog makes quick changes of speed and direction. In any case, booties are consumables.
• Mainly, this model works great in snow conditions. However, the material is breathable and porous, so when the snow is very dry and light frosty snow, it can penetrate through the fabric into the bootie in some rare conditions.
• NOTE: If you notice that the end of the velcro becomes frayed/frayed during use, you should immediately cut it with a new clean cutting surface and burn the end.

Determining the correct size of booties

Measure the circumference of your dog's paw from the widest point, so that the dog is standing (that is, there is weight on the paw). Divide this measurement by two and compare to the width of the booties. In borderline cases, choose a wider bootie (the dog's paw must have room to expand when stepping). Tip: if you don't have a flexible measuring tape, use e.g. a string and a normal ruler to measure the circumference of your dog's paw.

Renewal of sizes and color codes 12/2023

The manufacturer has introduced a new intermediate size, i.e. S, between the former XS size (pink) and S/M size (red). At the same time, the color code of the XS size changed from pink to white. The old S/M size now corresponds to the M size (both with red edges). The new booties are squarer at the tip.

All the new booties are squarer at the toe than the old ones, and the width can also differ to a greater extent.
