Vet and Customer Stories

Our 14 month old puppy Elsaw has had surgery on her front legs. We were desperate about how to keep the bandages dry (we tried everything we could think of) when I found your website. I asked our vets to order 2 for me. The Medipaw boots have proved invaluable! We tell everyone about them and have encouraged our vets to recommend them too.

My Medipaw boot protects my toes, is water resistant, has an adjustable Velcro strap and is machine washable. Mom was so excited to find a boot wide and high enough for my entire cast! The Ziploc pouch and hair tie would not work for the full 10 weeks, especially during the winter and spring.

Medipaw boots are awesome!! My little guy broke his leg a few weeks back. we got the boot when he got the cast, and it has been awesome for the winter. The boot stays on great!

Medipaw makes absolutely fantastic post-surgical protective garments for all kinds of surgery sites - not just feet! And they’ll brand it with your practice’s name! Great company and product.

Your product has made our dog’s wound management so much easier. Way better than shopping bags and easier for her to walk in too. Thank you!

We use them all the time for our post-op cases. They keep the bandage dry and it’s easy application makes owners more compliant. Great fit every time.

As a veterinarian the medipaw protective boot is the best option I have ever used to keep a bandage clean and dry. I wish I had known about it sooner! It’s been a game changer for my own pet and significantly has made Leo’s recovery more manageable. I can’t wait to try their other recovery products for my patients.

AWESOME PRODUCT! The only secure paw protector booty on the market. Comes high enough with sufficient velcro strapping and top tie to reliably keep out snow & wet which ruins paw healing. By using it IMMEDIATELY after 1st vet visit you can shorten healing time by a week. Thus you save more re-bandaging vet costs from having wet bandages. Can't recommend it enough! At 8,000' here in Boulder, CO. with more snow forecast, what would we have done with a recycled short plastic IV bag foot covering?!

Frequent questions

Need additional help? Please contact us.

What is the main difference between the soft bandage boot and the rugged x-boot?

The soft bandage boot has a durable, anti-skid sole made of flexible rubber that protect soft bandages for up to two weeks. The rugged x-boot has a molded cup sole that accommodates hard casts, splints, thicker bandages and active patients for up to six weeks.

Can my patient wear a rugged x-boot to protect a soft bandage?

Yes. Many young or high energy patients benefit from the rugged x-boot for protecting soft bandages. Please measure carefully with the soft bandage in place to ensure a secure fit.

Will the boot protect a bandage if it is submerged in water during swimming or hydrotherapy?

No. The boot is waterproof for puddles, rain, snow, dew, and sprinklers but not for submersion in bodies of water.

How does the boot stay on?

The boot is secured with Velcro® straps and an upper drawstring. The inside has a polyurethane coating that adheres well to bandaging material.

Will the boot slip off?

If the boot is sized properly to fit over a bandage, splint, or cast, the interior coating ensures that it will not slip.
