Senior dog & hard wood floors
- Thread starter waitmanff

If you buy Infant/ Toddler's socks, they will usually have grip things on the bottom.. That worked for me!
I have no suggestions but I'm interested in hearing. I have a dog that is 12.5 years old and I have hardwood floors. For some reason though, she seems to prefer to lay on the hardwood as opposed to the area rug.
If the socks do t work. Lay rugs in the walking path he normally takes. Be sure to lay the rug gripper under them.

Worth a try. They look like they go on fairly easily.

You can try this product. Also sold on Amazon where you can read the reviews first.
For a quick substutute, dip your dog's paws in a saucer of soft drink. Cola or uncola if you prefer. Let it dry to a tackiness that will help your dog's traction.
Depending on what kind of dog, too, make sure any overly long hair in between pads is clipped.
Your dog may simply have very dry footpads. A bit of moistening may help. Just use a hand cream. Of course, avoid the creams with slippery silicone. The tackier the better.
