Sadly (or not as in my case lol) we're too late, they've already got "skid boots" now there's a thought!!!! I'd better get the drawing board out then if we are to stand any chance of attracting that Peter Jones!!! Strangely though, all the boots they do seem to come up to just below that carpal pad (maybe it's important for a dog to have brakes??) but they protect the pads and the dew claw most of them. I'm on the case, I've got to find something to stop this happening again.

thanks majuka, Georgie's well on the mend, it's Zena now though with self inflicted carpal pad injuries!
