1. Nail deformation after wearing shoes

After a dog puts on shoes, the friction of the soles is much smaller than when the paws touch the ground. In other words, the grip force drops sharply, causing the dog to jump. It falls easily, and its claws have to be stretched out extremely wide in order to grasp the ground firmly. Over time, the claws will deform and become ugly. Moreover, dogs will wear their nails during daily walking to prevent their nails from getting too long. After wearing shoes, the frequency of nail cutting will be much higher.

2. Affects bone shape

It is not difficult to find that many dogs’ walking postures will become quite strange after putting on shoes for the first time, and some can even no longer walk. Moreover, wearing shoes will have a certain impact on the dog's sense of balance. In order to maintain balance, the dog's hip bones will exert force in an effort to maintain balance. Over time, the hip bones may be deformed and affect the dog. Dog health.

3. Impact on bone shape

Wearing shoes for dogs will affect the movement of the dog’s feet. The dog’s paws cannot stretch freely in the shoes; the nails and soles of the feet cannot be properly padded. To natural friction, these are not good for dogs. And if the dog runs in shoes, accidents are likely to occur. If the soles are too slippery, causing the dog to lose its balance, it may cause serious sprains or fractures.

4. Airtight and stuffy

In order to make dog-specific shoes sturdy, they are generally made of leather or imitation leather. In order to prevent them from falling off, the shoes will be tightly wrapped around the dog's feet, making The inside of the shoes is quite airtight and very hot. You can try inserting your fingers into the shoes that your dog has just worn. It should be moist and hot. In this case, if you still wear shoes when it rains in summer, the dog's heat can only be dissipated through the tongue, not through the paws. As a result, the probability of dogs suffering from heat stroke increases sharply.

5. Foreign objects are easily injured by friction

When dogs walk barefoot outside, if they encounter stones or the like, they will naturally fall off after only a few steps. Once a stone falls into the shoe, it cannot speak and cannot tell the owner to remove the stone from the shoe. After walking for a long time, the stone in the shoe will constantly rub against the paws, making it easier to scratch the foot. .

6. The growth rate of sole hair is accelerated

After wearing shoes, the degree of wear on the soles of the feet will definitely be reduced a lot, and the corresponding sole hair will also not be worn, so the length of the sole hair will gradually become longer. If the shoes are stuffy and airtight, it will lead to the growth of bacteria and increase the chance of suffering from skin diseases.
