Dr. Buzby's ToeGrips® for Dogs

These have been a life extender for our dog, Suki. She's almost 17 1/2 now, and has severe arthritis but still loves running around on the farm. She was sliding on the linoleum and although we did the runners and small rugs for her to walk on, she frequently got off the 'path'. If we weren't there to help her get up again, she would often make a mess on the floor in her struggle. 😔 My vet recommended toe grips to me, and I bought a set.

After soaking the grips in alcohol for 3 minutes, I had trouble getting them on and decided they were too small. Customer service sent me a link to start the exchange process, But I noticed another video I hadn't seen and watched it. It convinced me that I probably DID have the correct size and I tried again... this time, I soaked the grips in alcohol for a full 5 minutes. I got them all on! I sent a picture to customer service rep, Teri, who noticed I had a couple misplaced (too far up the toe). So I adjusted them--that was incredibly helpful! Suki is doing so much better on the linoleum now. I'm grateful for this product and wish the vet had recommended them a year ago!!

When I saw the fb ad for these ToeGrips, I was ecstatic!! Before seeing it, I was planning on buying a bunch of area rugs and runners for Max to be able to get around the house safer. I have all laminated hardwood floors, which as dog owners know, are incredibly difficult for any dog to maneuver on, let alone my almost 14yr. old, Max. He still lives to play fetch and run around the house, but it’s dangerous for him currently. I was thrilled to seen these as a potential solution. The site recommended purple, however, since he’s overweight + ideally should be closer to 70Ibs, I should’ve ordered the green ones. Customer service reached out to me almost immediately after I expressed my concern. They’re sending me the large ones and I can’t wait to see how much better they work, now that they’ll be sized correctly. Despite the purple (xl) ones being too big for Max, they still helped tremendously. I’ll update this review once he tries out the greens ones!! :-) So far, I love the company and the product!! :-)

Our dog is 17 and this product definitely is helping prevent him from splaying on tile! Great product and so glad we found it!

My little Yorkiepoo who is my service dog as well has been having difficulty going down stairs and jumping onto a hard surface. I started with the size small as he is borderline between size small and medium. The smalls were so difficult to get on it took forever to get one on and I had to call my neighbor to help. I had to take them off when he needed a nail trim and couldn’t imagine going through that again for my sake and his. I called customer service and an actual human answered the phone. She couldn’t have been more helpful and understanding. Within a week she had the mediums delivered. Amazing how much easier they were on both of us!
He is finding his confidence again and jumping up and down from my bed with ease.
This is not only a great product but the costumer service is exceptional.
Many thanks,

At first, Luna felt insecure about walking on the hardwood floor, as she always does. However, when she noticed the grip of the surface, her confidence grew, and she began to walk without any issues. Now, she is really happy. I tried adding some carpets for her to walk on, but that didn't work well; she still slipped sometimes. This new solution, however, is truly effective.

Well I will tell you that I was skeptical. I tried booties with my other dog and putting Runners everywhere in my house. But I still couldn't shake the feeling of being worried that my pup would fall. Fast forward a few more years and now my first pup is gone but my second pup is going through the same thing. I happened upon an advertisement for these toe grips and thought what the heck. Oh my gosh they are game changer! Not only does my dog not even fight them at all, they work! They give traction on slippery floors immediately! I've also found that if you see them start to wear you can take them off and turn them around and put the Fresh side toward the back of the nail and it's like getting a second free pair. My dog loses a couple here and there but it's really easy to get new ones back on. I cannot recommend these enough!

We've tried everything but this solution works. Our dog doesn’t mind them on her and has much improved mobility because of the added traction. Highly recommended but make sure you get the right size.

My 16yo heeler/pit mix didn’t struggle too much with slick floors, but noticed it was taking him effort to find traction at times. We tried out the toe grips and feel that they do provide him some additional support which we appreciate at 16yo.

My 17 year old JRT had been skating on our hard floors for a while. She just couldn't walk confidently any more. I decided to take a chance on these toe grips. I applied them only to her back feet to see how they worked. She is so much more confident! After a week they are all still on and haven't migrated at all. I may apply to her front feet, but I am not sure if I really need to. I am very happy with how these have helped her mobility!

My tripod Anatolian Shepherd has one back leg—and wouldn’t you know it, that’s the leg with a CCL tear. She was constantly slipping, especially on that one leg, and we’ve tried a lot of things to help. But I’m not about to turn my entire house into an obstacle course of floor runners.

Then I found Dr. Buzby’s ToeGrips—and wow. The difference was immediate. She’s not sliding around like Bambi on ice anymore. Even my dad noticed (which never happens), and friends have commented on how much more stable she seems. It’s honestly been such a relief to see her walk around with more confidence.

One of the best parts? Before I even received the product, the team asked me to tell them more about my dog. When I mentioned she was a tripod, they immediately let me know she’d need glue for better grip—and then included a complimentary bottle. That kind of thoughtful, proactive support is rare.

We’re still working on perfecting the glue application. They’ve fallen off a handful of times, which can be time-consuming and a little frustrating. But every time I’ve reached out, their customer service has been super responsive and genuinely helpful, working with me to figure out the best way to keep them on.

So far? Game-changer. Great product, great people, and my dog is finally getting some traction—literally.
