Hips would be better with skis I think - might stop her close encounters with cattlegrids! And I bet she looked very regal too – these do have non slip soles – a bit like slipper socks.

That would be really useful for the greyhounds with an aversion to slippy floors! Seriously, why do they make them? Lots of reasons!! Some dogs have corns which mean they do better walking in boots, some get sore feet from the salt they grit the roads with, sometimes they'll have foot injuries and the boots stop them worrying at them. Mind you, it looks as though those little suede booties are nothing but fashion items, doesn't it? I'm sure The Princess would looooove them! Much more better than the little purple 'balloon' dog sock I made her wear over her strapping for her bruised toe! Although purple is a royal colour, is it not? Do they have non-slip soles?

I think leg warmers would be better!
