I WISH For boots for my Service Dog

I am in desperate need of a PetSmart gift card of $50 to be able to get winter boots for my Service dog. I am disable and have been partnered with a Service Dog for 5 years now. Her old boots are too worn out to use. She can only stand on the cold snow for a couple of minute before her pads start to bleed. This has caused me to have to stay home bound. Not being able to look for a new place to live or go get groceries or go to doctors appointments or anything. I am on assistance and can't afford the cost of the boots. The cheap pairs get wet and can cause frost bite and other dangers. The kind she needs is Muttluks Dog Booties. For her size they are about $50. These she can wear all year round and last 2-3 years. She wears them in cold weather on ice and snow but also in really hot weather on ashfault that can burn her pads. So the cost is worth it. With out the boots she and I are house bound since we take the bus, not affording to take taxi's. If someone can please help us I and my Service dog would be oh so greatful. I am in Alberta.

    The Florida Chapter is happy to help grant this wish. Please send us your paypal address and we will send you $50 to be put toward the dog boots.

    I have a $3 off coupon from Petsmart I got for doing one of those phone surveys. I believe it expires on the 20th. If you PM your address, I'd be happy to send it. Hopefully it will help. You might want to put Paypal on your wish so if someone can't purchase a $50 giftcard, at least they can give a portion towards it.

    I have these but it looks like Dave wants to get you exactly what you need. Service dogs are the BEST!

  • Eragonverified member icon 18 months ago

    She is a German Shepherd so takes a size large.

    I have a brand-new set of doggie boots --- I just don't know the brand, but they WERE from PetsMart. What is her size? I will hunt them out of a box.

  • Eragonverified member icon 18 months ago

    bbwvixen. Yeah. In 5 years I have tried other brands and they just do not hold up. Sadly they come apart too easily in the wash or come off to easily and get lost when out walking. Or they get wet and let in the water causing frost bite and other problems. Took me a while to find a decent brand that can hold up.

  • bbwvixenverified member icon 18 months ago

    Amazon.com doesn't deliver alot of stuff to Canada. Amazon.ca basically only does cd's and dvd's. It's the reason I got a po box across the line.

    Petcetra is having a HUGE sale right now, if I can make it out tomorrow, I'll look for the booties. Does have to be the same brand?

  • Eragonverified member icon 18 months ago

    THanks for posting the link Serena. I don't have a paypal account or a credit card. I am on disability so extra's like that are not possible. I will email them and see if they will take a money order but the last time I did that the person kept it and never sent the product and there was nothing I could do since I was in Canada and they were in the States. I will have to wait till the end of the month to get the money order but it is an option so thank you. If someone else can help before then I would greatly appreciate it.

    http://www.amazon.com/s/ref=nb_ss_gw?url=search-alias%3Daps&field-keywords=muttluks+dog+boots Amazon.com also has them, and they have a very neat little thing called a 'wishlist' that you can make. =) Most people love wishlists because it ships directly to your house after being set up. Would you consider making one and adding these to that list then posting a link to the wishlist?
