Testimonials from Veterinarians

"My clients sometimes spend a significant amount of money on their pet's illnesses and injuries. Until now I have been asking them to protect bandages and splints with a plastic bag. The Medipaw® protective boot professonalizes my practice!" - Paul Donovan, VMD

"Dispensing the Medipaw® protective boot adds value to the surgeries I perform and truly helps my clients." - Carlos Hodges, DVM

"VOSM is proud to provide the Medipaw® protective boot to our post-surgical patients. The boot is a much better shield against the elements than any other means we've tried. Plus, it looks great, the clients like it, and it is inexpensive!"

"We routinely offer the Medipaw® boot to our clients. It is easy to apply, secures well, lightweight, moisture resistant, and easy to clean. The Medipaw® is economical both to us and the client, reducing the need for frequent bandage changes."

"Medipaws are an indispensable addition to a busy orthopedic practice.  Medipaws are well constructed, comfortable, and enable dogs to walk outside without risking damage to the distal limb bandage. Having used Medipaws for over two years, I cannot imagine having to manage bandages without them."

"We have tried many different bandage covers including empty IV bags and OB sleeves. They had limitations in size, durability and ease of use. We purchased the Medipaw® for patients needing long-term extremity bandages. The overwhelming opinion of our clients was very positive.

Thank you for creating this very useful product."

"One of our resident dogs, Rex, needed to have his dewclaws removed. Our students started out using "homemade" covers for his feet when he went out. The covers usually were destroyed after one or two days. Once I place the Medipaw® protective boot on him, we never had another issue!! Thank you so much for this wonderful product! It made his recovery much faster and with less complication than other methods."

Testimonials from Dog Owners

"What a marvelous product. I have used the boots in the past for one of my Bullmastiffs with a broken elbow, but this time the product really surpassed every expectation in terms of endurance. One of my Bullies had hock surgery ELEVEN WEEKS ago and has worn a boot to cover her full leg cast since the day of the surgery... she's been on very restricted exercise, but she has worn the boot all day for 11 weeks (removing it at night), the entire time with 100+ pounds of weight and a heavy plaster cast all grinding down on the boot. It's been washed dozens of times too, and looks nearly new..."

"I just wanted to write and let you know how delighted I am with the Medipaw® boot! Our male greyhound, Cleveland, broke a dewclaw recently and the vet sent us home with a Medipaw boot after removing the nail and bandaging Cleveland’s foot. Here in Michigan, we have a tough time dealing with winter foot injuries and keeping bandages clean and dry. With the icy snow we sometimes get, cuts and scrapes happen a lot. I wish I would have had this product years ago. It’s so simple to put on and take off and I don’t have to stress about wrapping anything too tightly around his leg. It’s light enough that he isn’t bothered to wear it and we leave it on in the house to keep him from chewing and licking.

I always appreciate it anytime I can add to my stash of reusable pet first aid supplies. Thanks for a wonderful product!"

-Kathy Nason

"I'm using one of your large Medipaw boots on my alpaca's foot to help protect it from the elements as the foot heals, especially now with the cold and wet conditions (in northeast Ohio). Your boot is the only 'covering' that's been effective."

- Linn Parise

"The [veterinarians] should all know what’s available; it would’ve helped to be told about your option for the over two weeks when I was using plastic bags. And I was too frantic to search the Internet because of all the emergency visits and 24-hour care at home. As I told you, I saw a large dog leaving clinic wearing your bootie and that’s when I asked for one. When I asked for a larger size, going from extra small to small because it didn’t fit over huge bandage that they’ve since made smaller so the little bootie does slide on -- I was told that they only had the extra small size and the very large size on hand, and if I wanted something else, to contact you directly.

You provide a wonderful product and every dog owner in my neighborhood in Lake Worth knows who to contact should they face an injury with their pets. Thank you again, Ally"

"I ordered the Medipaw Boot for my dog before her surgery in preparation for needing to keep her foot dry aftwards. This product is WONDERFUL! I have 3 dogs and have had to use the bag and tape method in the past. I wish I would have known long ago about this product. Thank you!"

- Rebecca Jones

"I love the boots. One of my 3 golden retrievers cut the pad on his rear paw requring 6 sutures. I guess now that it is healing, it itches, and he's practically chewing his foot off if I don't keep it covered."

- Leslie Norman

"The Medipaw® protective boot is awesome! I like them so much I have two. If one of my three greyhounds has a cut paw that needs to be kept clean and dry, the boot is so easy to use. I have also used the boot when my male greyhound, Beau, has hotspots on his back feet. The boots prevent him from licking excessively. I wish everything I purchased was as affordable and useful as the Medipaw boot! I recommend them to all my friends who have dogs."

- Alice Wenger, satisfied customer and greyhound mom, Lafayette, IN

"The protective boot is so easy to use, and provides more protection than plastic bags ever did. When your hound is in a hurry to go out, the boot goes on in a flash. I have used it several times and it always keeps the bandages dry. I would highly recommend to anyone that has a dog to add it to their first aid kit for those unexpected accidents."

- Lisa Gibson, Greyhound Parent

"After using it 4-5 times a day for 2 weeks in the snow, it held up well. When it was time to go out, my dog would have her leg up so I could put it on easily. It was a pleasure to not have to deal with a plastic bag and tape!"

- Dog Owner

"I used it on my dog several times a day for about two weeks. The Medipaw® protective boot keeps the bandage dry."

- Dog Owner

"My 'TONKA' actually loved it. When it came time to go out, he would sit next to the door with his paw in the air, waiting for mom to put the boot on. When he came in the same process all over again. It took no time to put on or off. We did use it to walk across very wet grass and the bandage was not wet. I highly recommend them to anyone whose pet has a bandage. It is fast and easy to use."

- Dawn L. Sabatino, dog owner
