"These mocs are the best! Gus would always do long runs in the mountains with me, but suffered a carpal injury requiring surgery. For the past two years he’s suffered from nail drag and would constantly have nail injuries preventing him from joining me on the trails. I tried most other booties with no success, as they irritated his dew claw and were often too bulky to run well in. Thanks to Dog Mocs we have been back up and running up to 15 miles on some days with no nail issues, plus he doesn’t seem to even notice that he’s wearing a moc. They seem very durable, as he does tend to drag the very toe edge of the shoe, but I think they’ll last a decent amount of time even in the rugged terrain. These have made both me and my dog very happy!" - Chris S.

“Canine Companions service dog JJ accompanies my daughter, Maddie, in her wheelchair wherever she goes. We purchased his first pair in Sept of 2019 and soon got another pair so we could always have a clean, dry pair. He wears them on hot pavement, and when he’s off duty, racing around the concrete pool deck. During his first trial period, he was so comfortable he fell asleep. I wish we had these for Maddie’s first service dog when he got older, but we’re glad JJ will have no problem with slippery surfaces later in life.” - @epaolero66 Thank you for sharing!

I’m so glad I found your DogMocs! I searched for a long time and bought (and returned) many many many alternatives that were unsatisfactory. Most commercially available footwear for dogs doesn’t allow the paw to sweat and dissipate; doesn’t allow the dog to feel the surface under their paws; produces pressure sores on their feet from zippers and Velcro. Most dogs find mainstream booties uncomfortable and an aversive experience to putting them on and wearing them. As a dog trainer in Arizona, I recommend your product to all of my clients. Thank you for making such a wonderful product! - Shane A (DogDude, LLC)
“I purchased Max’s mocs in 2020 after observing his injured pads from activity on smooth hard surfaces. It took 2 weeks for his pads to heal, every time, which sidelined him from his favorite sport: Disc Dog!! I tried many different boots, but none allowed the dexterity while providing protection like Dog mocs did.
Dog mocs footwear has been life-changing for Max. He wears them hiking, during walks/runs, and even when his activities includes running through streams/creeks (he may have even swam a few times while wearing them). The added bonus is that they prevent ice buildup between his toes and protect his feet from de-icers in the winter. They have formed to his feet following repeated wear and they are secure, never getting lost during our adventures. They also allow his feet to feel the surfaces and breathe, unlike boots made with heavier materials and those with rubber traction.
Last year, they started showing signs of wear with small holes becoming apparent. We are planning replacements for him and for his little sister, Dolly.” - Traci

"We love our doc mocs! We have worn them all over Arizona, from sandy trails, to avoid thorns, to rocky mountain hikes to avoid tender pads on sharp rocks/shale, to neighborhood outings, to avoid hot pavement, to woody forest paths, to avoid mud. These mocs have done it all. I bought a "back up" pair, since I didn't think the mocs would hold up so well. It's been 2 years, and we're still using the original pair! We often get stopped by other dog owners, and always highly recommended our dog mocs! They are easy to put on and stay on too." - Nicole in Arizona

WOW OH WOW! First of all, you weren't wrong about the sizing. It was a little snug to squeeze into her bigger front paws but it's leather, it's going to stretch with use. Second, maybe it's that I've made it a point to touch her paws a lot and have put shoes on her before but she didn't even lightly struggle when I put these leather mocs on her which was surprising to me. Third, NO adjustment period, like zero. She walked normally immediately, no weird leg lifting/marching at all, no trying to bite at her feet to take them off, nothing! I admit, there is a bit of a learning curve because I didn't tie the knot tight enough and they came off during rough doggy playtime but I recognized my error and when I re-tied them with a double knot, no problem at all, they stayed on. Anyway, these things are AMAZING and I will be telling all my dog owning friends about them. Thank you, thank you, thank you! :) -S.

"They are amazing! Dog Mocs makes the best fitting booties and they fit their foot naturally. We've worn them in snow, on ice, through desert terrain, and hot weather. Seriously they are the best" - Zizou's owner (@zizou.adventure.ears)

"I just wanted to say how lucky my dog and I are for stumbling upon Dog Mocs!
I have a Bernese Mountain dog named Bruce. Earlier this month he lost complete control of his back legs. I needed something to help him with his grip on the floor. Most of the house has hardwood floors which turned into an ice rink for him. I was worried he would further injure himself. I tried the traditional booties and he hated them to say the least. The Dog Mocs were the clear choice and he now cruises all over the house with more confidence and I have some peace of mind knowing he isn't going to crash and burn. He can feel the ground and work on his balance and how he steps, aiding in his recovery. " - Tyler A. @TYtyler801. |
Luna
“Our first pair of Dog Mocs was about five years ago. We were going to Las Vegas in August and I needed them for my service dog. She was very touchy about her feet and we had tried everything from the cheap ones at the pet store to the expensive ones made by RuffWear. She wouldn’t wear any of them. But she always tolerated the Dog Mocs, which was such a blessing!! She’s retired now; we have since moved to Florida and she is very much enjoying chasing the birds in our yard and otherwise being a couch potato.” – Alyssa F. Pictured here is Luna, a retired service dog. Thank you to her owner, Alyssa F. for sharing this testimonial with us and being a long time customer! Luna is wearing an XL on her front paws and a L on her back paws.
Ellie
"Over the last few years, as my German Shepherd Ellie gets older she injures her front paw pads quite easily. I used boots for awhile but I could never find a perfect size and they would cause blisters, especially on her dewclaws. A friend sent me a video of Dog Mocs and she was much happier and a lot more mobile. She wore them on hikes, hot streets, and whenever needed to protect her pads. They lasted and lasted for over 2 years and now I am here for another set! If you're looking to protect your pup's paws and/or a great conversation starter at the park I highly recommend!"

Bernie
"I've looked back in our hiking log to try to figure out how many miles Bernie wore the Mocs for. I'd approximate 60-70 miles, of mountain hikes. When I added it up, at first this didn't seem like a lot of miles to put on them, but then I considered that we only put the Mocs on when the terrain is rocky, so they're only exposed to the harshest of conditions. Additionally, I've learned over the years that Bernie is heavy on his feet (he's built like a body builder), which would be hard on his paws, if it wasn't for Dog Mocs. This past weekend, we hiked with a friend's dog up the pass (photo) over sharp slate, and the other dog (with no foot protection) had torn pads that required field first aid, while Bernie's feet were TOTALLY FINE in the Mocs!"

"Dog Mocs are a great product. No other boot has stood up to the rigorous training of our K-9's, until Dog Mocs. We put them on our fastest and most aggressive K-9 and conducted normal training exercises for 3 weeks. The Dog Mocs never fell off....the K-9 was able to perform without distraction....and there was not one rip or tear, which given our training in the Texas desert, is pretty amazing."

"Thank you Dog Mocs for inventing the perfect product with such serendipitous timing for Nikki our 14+ year old Belgian Malinois mix............Nikki has been fighting hip inflammation since she was 9. Recently....... she was dragging her hind legs to the point of wearing down her nails to the quick. Nikki is accustomed to at least 2 mile walks a day. We were quite concerned of a decline in her health if we couldn't maintain her activity levels...... We had tried various "booties" in the past with zero success and went looking for alternative solutions, and found Dog Mocs.............Nikki accepted wearing them IMMEDIATELY! I was shocked at how Nikki took to them like a second skin....... We were thankfully back to our walking routine..................Nikki is a special senior care case and finding the Dog Mocs were a true God-send! I hate to imagine how quickly her health could have deteriorated without the daily walks. In fact, since Nikki has started using the Dog Mocs, her gait, stamina, and speed has increased......I love this product and so does Nikki!" Check out the videos here!
"Thank you for your help and support for Nicki's boots. We found nothing here in Australia that worked. She has severe dermatitis and thought I'd never find protective boots that not only would fit a Greyhound, but some she'd actually be comfortable in. Your Dog Mocs are just amazing! She loves them."

"Moki and I test many products for our Instagram account and we think Dog Mocs are GREAT! Moki did not like walking down a nearby nature trail, because it's almost 90% uneven, large rocks. But with Dog Mocs, he just skips along the rocks now! I would definitely recommend you invest in a set for your pup...and they come in many sizes. Two PAWS up!!"

"The first time I took Rose out with her Dog Mocs, she ran like she has never ran before. Before, she ran very gingerly along the pavement, but I thought it was just her normal. But with Dog Mocs, she literally pounded the pavement, as she ran without a care. I didn't realize, until that moment, how sensitive her paws were on concrete. My sister and I couldn't stop smiling.Thank you, Dog Mocs, for giving Rose a little better life! "

Drake has "soft feet", which has led to constant health problems. On hikes, the paw pads would often get cut, sometimes leading to infection. In spring/summer, he developed contact allergies to the soils, which caused him to chew his itchy paws. The allergies required expensive medication. On top of all that, I needed to protect his paws from the salt, used as ice-melt. Drake and I were desperate for a functional set of dog boots, and we tried many brands, none of which worked or stayed on. Then we found Dog Mocs, and it has been a life-changer! Dog Mocs significantly improved the quality of Drake's life, and has certainly saved me lots on vet expenses! He's clearly comfortable in them, and they STAY ON during long hikes, no matter the conditions.....deep woods, mud, ice, fields of grass. I can't thank this company enough for truly improving Drake's quality of life. -- Laura, New York |
