My old merino socks were what allowed Hara to make it the last 30km of her run through the desert with us. Ripped and tattered by the end of it, we're so lucky to now have a pair of Non-stop booties to protect her feet for many more kilometres. I've recommended a countless number of times for clients to use socks or booties for their dogs - injuries to paw pads are honestly so frustrating to heal, and getting your dog used to booties as a preventative rather than when they're needed just for an injury is so worth it.
