Traction & Grip

Hardwood and tile are the reason a lot of dogs stop getting up. When paws slide, the dog braces, and bracing on bad hips turns into avoidance — so they stay put rather than risk the floor. Toe grips, non-slip socks and boots give the paw something to hold. Floor runners fix the problem at the source along the routes your dog actually uses: bed to door, couch to kitchen. Start with the runners if the slipping is confined to one hallway, and add grips if it's happening everywhere.
