We received the most generous gift today from our friend Monbo and Christina. This dynamic duo was sent to us by Dr. Pam, our favorite Fairy Vet Mother in Washington state.
The Ruffwear boots and socks that Christina ordered just didn't work out for Monbo's big paws. Christina is so nice she wanted to donate them to the exchange. Here's what she sent:
Item: Bark'n Boot Liners™ Color: Twilight QTY: 1 set of 4 liners Size: LG (For Boots M-XXL) Item: Single Summit Trex™ Boot Color: Storm Gray (040) QTY: 1 single boot Size: LG (3.0 in.) AND
Item: Bark'n Boot Liners™ Color: Twilight QTY: 1 set of 4 Liners Size: MED (2.50"/2.75") Item: Single Summit Trex™ Boot Color: Storm Gray (040) QTY: 1 single boot Size: MED (2.75")
Before requesting these we ask that you read about the Ruffwear boots first to ensure they'll work for your pup.

I'm in love with Monbo!!! One of the most smoochable mugs ever!!!! Love him!!
How very nice of Christina and Monbo to donate these. Perhaps she'll "donate" some more pictures of Monbo to the Tripawd site to make us all smile some more!!!
Cheering for you Monbo!
Thanks again for your kind donation!

Hi! My parents dog had her rear right leg amputated three days ago. She is 15 years old and, because my parents have slippery wood floors and she has arthritis, I think the boots and liners would be extremely helpful to her mobility. Unfortunately, due to the expensive surgeries she has gone through this week, my parents aren't able to purchase these items right now. If they are still available please let me know!!

Thank you!

Welcome Bree, and best wishes for Boo!
Since you have cut and pasted identical requests for numerous different boots offered in this forum, and not yet registered, we have deleted your other posts. Please first confirm your dog's paw size for the boots above. See Summit Trex sizing information and instructions here. Other types of dog boots may have other sizes and paw measurements!
Please consider registering to take full advantage of all the resources this site has to offer. And feel free to post a WANTED topic following the instructions in this Angel Exchange topic. Then feel free to request one offered item at a time, once you have confirmed the ones you ask for will fit, and are still available.
Thanks!

Oh I am so sorry! I didn't realize that was not standard for this forum. I was hoping to send out posts regarding all open offers that would be useful to Boo in hopes of getting even one positive response back.
I have measured Boo's foot according to Ruffwear's sizing guidelines and the width of her foot is 2.5".
Please let me know if these boots are still available in her size, as i mentioned in the above post, I think she would benefit greatly from grip enabling boots!
Thanks!

That's fine, please just do so one at a time as advised in the Angel Exchange posting instructions. Otherwise, you may end up with multiple pairs of boots others could use—and they may not even fit!

Unfortunately, these Summit Trex boots will not fit Boo. You will notice the sizing details in the first post above. Please only request items you know will fit, and if sizes/measurements are not listed be sure to ask with a reply or via Private Message (which you can do if you register).
I think she would benefit greatly from grip enabling boots!
She very well may! You might also consider trying the inexpensive PAWz dog booties or Power Paws traction socks first to see if she'll even tolerate footwear. Will find many more traction recommendations at any of the highlighted "traction " links.

Hey Bree and Boo! Just wanted to send some love and support to Boo and family! Fifteen years young, WOW!!
Really hope you will start a post in the foru and tellnus more about Boo. There's a thread called "Size and Age Matters" that may be a great place to lost. We've had a lot of seniors go through amputation and would love to follow Boo's journey. How is he handling recovery so far? It can take seniors a bit longer to recover sometimes. Let us know if we can help, okay?
Also, you may want to get some inexpensive non slip scatter rugs for traction . Hardwood floors are really jard for a recovering tripawd to handle!
Best wishes to you and Boo!
