Ruffwear is generally considered one of the best apparel companies for pets. Otherwise it is all highly variable. I recommend to look at product recommendations online. Any boot is liable to cause annoyance to a pet since they are not use to wearing them. Petsmart and Petco both tend to carry products that work well and are durable. I hope this helps and please feel free to post any additional questions.

For short walks, a few minutes, she can probably go out as is. If you plan on spending more than 5-10 minutes outside or if Maggie takes a long time to do her business, then you may want to consider booties and a coat. You can browse fashions at the link below. https://www.petco.com/shop/en/petcostore/category/dog/dog-apparel

Batman is cute!!!! I would recommend a coat for sure when he goes outside. If he is going outside for longer then 10 minutes, I would also recommend boots (if he will wear them). These little ones lose body heat quickly. Thank you for using Pet Coach!

Hello and welcome to Petco Pet Education Center, formerly Petcoach. If you are going to go outside and it is very cold out, or if you will be going for long walks or on colder surfaces (not snow but ice or cold pavement) then booties are a good idea as they can get frostbite and wounds from cold on their feet. Best of luck with Spike! Have fun with him!

Even if you do not see a problem with the skin, it is likely that Bootz picked up a parasite infection or bacterial or fungal infection from the dog. I suggest you take Bootz for an exam to your veterinarian. Some of those infections can be given on to humans, so don't wait too long. Your vet may want to culture a skin swab or do a skin scraping and look at it under the microscope to help with the diagnosis. Treatment is according to the findings and can include specific medicated shampoos, antibiotics, antifungals or an injection/tablets against mites
