I looked into these but decided they were too much of a pain for me(I'm lazy!)….I got these instead for Maggie when slippery floors are unavoidable for her:

cleanrun.com/index.cfm?fuseaction=product.display&Product_ID=1300&ParentCat=164

They basically look like little balloons on and off the dog!  But they work really well.  I have had Maggie on tiled floors and hardwood floors and she's been totally fine with her footing with them.

Tracy, Maggie's Mom

Maggie was amputated for soft tissue sarcoma 10-20-09

Maggie lost her battle with kidney disease on 8-24-13
