Khan has big feets.
I ordered some dog booties for him, and when I took the measurement, his front feet came in at 3" wide (at the widest point). We had a bandage change yesterday, and the stitches are holding. The vet thinks he will be hike ready (with foot protection), but we'll know more after the next bandage change. Suja |

We'll just have to be prepared to take the shoes off during stream crossings. And pray like hell that it doesn't rain (although the 10 day forecast calls for rain on the day we're going, which could turn our stream crossings into this: http://www.hikesite.com/crossing.jpg or worse). I don't know what we'll do if the water is deep, 'cause Khan generally refuses to get into deep water and Pan isn't too thrilled about the idea either, although she'll do what it takes to stay with me. Is he milking it for all he's worth? No drama, thankfully. I feel bad for him, hobbling around, and give him extra love (no extra goodies, 'cause he's exercise restricted, and we don't need him to gain any weight). He does extra cookies at the vet because the vets/techs just love him. He's about as easy a dog patient as they're likely to see. Suja |

I'm exactly three inches across and seven inches long, from the first wrist wrinkle to the tip of my middle finger. Kiba's paws are considerably smaller...

LOL Mine are wider and shorter - 3.5" wide (at thumb notch) x 6.75" long. Oppie's paws are about 3" long by 2.5" wide. FurPaw -- The plural of anecdote is not proof. To reply, unleash the dog. |
