Make Your Own Dog Gear

Dog BootsIf you've ever wanted to make your own dog boots, leads, collars or packs, Uberpest has the goods.

I didn't expect the site to come in useful so soon. My husky recently cut the pad on his right rear paw. It was a fairly deep cut and the last thing I wanted was for the wound to get infected. So after liberal applications of Betadine, a dressing was held in place with a hastily constructed boot. The boot was then used to protect the paw while out walking until it was fully healed. It's not going to win any fashion awards, but it did the job and he was surprisingly tolerant of his new footwear.

I ended up using a combination of Uberpest's design and another pattern I found at Greyhound Manor Crafts. It took a bit of trial and error before getting the result I wanted, so I'd recommend getting one right before making a full set.
