How to Measure Your Pet’s Paws for Shoes
To ensure the perfect fit for your pet’s shoes, follow these simple steps:
1. What You’ll Need:
- A blank sheet of paper
- A pen or pencil
- A ruler or measuring tape
- Your pet’s full weight on the paw (for accuracy)
2. Place the Paw on Paper
- Have your dog stand naturally on a flat surface.
- Place a piece of paper under their paw.
3. Mark the Widest Points
- Gently press down to ensure full contact.
- Mark the widest part of the paw (width) and the longest point (length).
4. Measure the Marks
- Use a ruler to measure:
- Length(from back of heel pad to longest toe)
- Width(widest part side to side)
5. Compare to Sizing Chart
- Check our brand’s sizing guide to find the best fit.
- If between sizes, round up for comfort.
Pro Tips for Accuracy:
✔ Measure all paws (some dogs have slightly different sizes).
✔ Measure while standing (paws spread more when bearing weight).
✔ Avoid measuring when paws are wet or dirty.
