Smokey's New Kicks

One word: traction.  Ryan found these doggie shoes on sale for $24.  We fully expected Smokes to immediately chew them off/kick them off, but he unexpectedly liked them... sort of.  He liked the idea of not sliding on the floors and he was able to move around with much more confidence.  He even resisted a bit when I went to take them off for the night. 

In full disclosure I wouldn't allow Ryan to take a video of Smokey learning how to walk in these.  It was so funny and ridiculous looking that we had to hide our faces and leave the room to laugh.  We didn't want him to feel self conscious.  We did, however, snap a pic after he had romped around for awhile.  Sorry you missed the hilarity of a 90 lb dog "prancing", but doesn't he look happy in the photo?!?
