I live and hunt in Minnesota. These boots are a great product to protect dogs feet from snow and ice clumps and cuts. My pup got used to wearing the boots quickly and after a few trips let's me put them on easily.

The fit and function of these boots were very good. I have tried others that were secured w/ velcro straps and they were flung off quickly, and wore sores on the tops of the dog's feet when tightened up. I used the Lewis boots only one day so far on a rocky chukkar hunt and my dog had no sores from the rocks or the boots.

I hunt chukar in Eastern WA in the high desert and the lava rock there cuts my pointers feet up. They hold up well but you have to duct tape the cr@p out of them or they can come off. I find some vet wrap on their legs first gives some extra hot spot protection. Look for the videos from Lewis about how to put them on. Worth the investment!

The Kansas Pheasant opener always presents a new challenge every year. This year, ample summertime rain led to an abundance of sand burrs. Having been warned by the farmer who allows us to hunt his land, I was able to order some boots for my 22 month old GSP. This is her second season in the field with us, and she would not have been able to enjoy year 2 (nor would I) if it wasn't for the Lewis dog boots. I had no issues with these boots. I followed the instructions to a T and my dogs feet were thanking me. The boots deflected the sand burrs like they didn't exist. Pictured is my GSP's very first retrieve (also wearing her Lewis boots).

I've been using Lewis dog boots for 6 years and they're the only dog boots I will use. They're extremely durable, as I'm still using some of the original boots I purchased. I often hunt in sandy country and the grass burrs are thick. Lewis dog boots keep my dogs' feet free of burrs and allow them to perform to their full potential. I highly recommend this product. Watch the video that Steve Snell made on how to put the boots on your dog. If you'll follow his advice these boots will stay on your dog all day. Also follow the sizing guide on the Gun Dog Supply website to properly fit your dog(s).

First time purchase. My boy took to the booties very quickly. They did a great job protecting his paws. Easy to get on and off. Great product.

Excellent boots for upland game hunting!

I hunt in the Arizona desert where everything wants to stick you, sting you, or bite you. These boots work excellent at keeping cactus needles out of your dogs paws. Josie got used to them in a matter of minutes and they really protect her from many of the nasties Arizona deserts have to offer. I did have to extend the side slits slightly to get over her large from paws however the extended slits did not alter the boot protection. Keeping the boots on requires a little practice with duct tape but easy to master. Always carry a spare though just in case. Jim B.

I have spent hundreds of $$ over the past few years trying to find a boot that my dog can run in when I run her on my bike. Every set I bought either rubbed her feet raw from the fabric uppers, fell apart or fell off. These boots are top notch. My only complaint is the need to tape them on. I wasn't going to do that every time I ran her, so I added Velcro straps. I still give these 5 stars due to the quality and fit, and they work exactly as advertised and designed. I just had to modify them for my needs. **Note the heavy-duty rubber does not stick to ANYTHING. I tried Superglue, Hot glue and epoxy to attach the straps but the only thing that kept them attached was super glue reinforced by sewing them to the boot.Hopefully Lewis makes a version with straps some day.

I have used Lewis dog boots this entire pheasant hunting season and have been very pleased. My dog had paw injuries the last 2 years that required surgery for removal of foreign bodies and ended our seasons early. This year no problems. She runs well with them on and lets me put them on readily. Very pleased. Put them on just as demonstrated in the video and they will stay on. Only time I lost a boot was in the snow due to the wetness. Might benefit from an extra layer of tape if hunting in snow.

Went quail hunting in New Mexico and picked up a few pairs of Lewis boots for the dogs. The sandburs were so bad that without the boots the dogs wouldn't have been able to work. You'd be picking sandburs and thorns out of their paws every few minutes. Takes a few minutes to put the boots on but worth it and they stay on the entire time. Best boots on the market.

Own quite a few sets for years

It's a good boot but I lost one on my first run of the day. I put them on as the video says too.

Took some trial and error to get them to stay on (2 attempts). Once I figured it out they stayed on. Use for chukar hunting in rocky hills. Saved the dogs feet and allowed us to hunt longer. The track for the dog was 18 miles. No sore pads. I just checked them a couple times to ensure they were still secure. A must have. I carry a couple spare boots just in case though but have not hade to use one yet.

These are the only boots I have found that will stay on my high energy lab for bird hunting. Would purchase again.

Love these boots! They stay on my dog through the toughest terrain and keep her feet free from cuts and abrasions!

Put these boots on and she hunted all day with no injuries or burrs at all! They are great!

I have used these boots on a GSP with good success. Unfortunately there isn't an XXL size for my 8month old GWP. Got XL hoping it would work but his feet are just too big. Welp...80mm motorcycle tube it is for him!

Using this boot on our E. setter that has a vulnerable toe on one hind foot. The boot stays on per the video from gun dog supply. We found that applying some musher secret to that paw before installing the boot helped it slide on and also lubricated the foot to eliminate hotspots. Remember when you were a kid and your socks would slide down in your rubber boots, not fun. We also would take the boot off after morning and reinstall it for afternoon hunts. Keep things as fresh as possible.

Very well-made excellent quality the sizing chart was good. They fit my dog. I will be anxious to use them in Nebraska early season. They should protect her feet well.

Great protection for your dog's feet in cactusy, thorny, or rocky areas, especially if you're on a road trip and plan to hunt multiple days back to back. I've messed around with a few different ways to keep them on my dog's feet, but Steve's video with the duck tape method works the best.

Standard dog boots for bird hunters. Quail like sandy soils and that means sand burrs and often prickly pear. These boots are long lasting and do the job

Ordered these before heading to hunt the Nebraska Sandhills. I never got a chance to put them on the dog beforehand. They went on easier than I thought they would. Guus was less than impressed at first, but after 10 minutes he was back to hunting as normal. A must for hunting around sandburs. I ended up getting a XL set for his front and a L for his back feet.

The Lewis Dog Boots are so much better than all of the other boots on the market that I've tried and Gun Dog Supply is always very prompt in their shipping. If you have a lab or a dog with big feet the X-Large may not be big enough. The x-large on my lab are to small which is my sizing fault not the companies.

Long story, short if you're headed to the Chukar hills buy these. If you 'think' your dogs feet are properly conditioned buy these. You never know. After two runs my girls feet were spent... Strapped the boots on and got a couple more days of hunting done.

Been using Lewis boots for many years, nothing else compares. Hunt from Idaho, Washington, and desert southwest. Essential �

This is the second set of dog boots from Lewis, the first was a set of vented boots that were given to me, I attached the boots as instructed by the online video instructions and the first hunt lost one of the boots. I mistakenly used the vented boots in ice and snow and soon learned the boot filled up with snow, dirt etc. The boots were also very tight on the top making them quite difficult to put on my dog. I then ordered the non vented boots and found them again to be quite difficult to get on the dogs foot. I used the dog boots for one hunt and while they did stay on his feet, he seemed to develop a slight limp on one of his feet. I am not sure why, but actually wondered if the boot could be pressing on his nails and causing discomfort. I know that dog boots are something that we need sometimes, it just appears to me given the structure of the dogs foot, it is something that can be difficult and may just be how it is.

We hunt an area with some really rough areas and occasional razor wire. The Lewis Boots are hunt saver for sure.

They look very nice, everyone very easy to work with , great company. do have a problem when trying to put them on my dog they dont open up far enough for his foot to go in so he won't set still long enough to get them on.

Super boots for dog, i hunt hard in Arizona desert and they do the job. Follow the instructions and you wont loose a boot anymore.
