Maintenance and Care
Proper care will extend the life of your TRIXIE Anti-Slip Dog Socks:
- Cleaning: Hand wash only. Use mild detergent and cold water.
- Drying: Air dry thoroughly. Do not tumble dry or use high heat, as this may damage the rubber dots.
- Inspection: Regularly inspect the socks for wear and tear, especially the anti-slip dots. Replace socks if they become damaged or lose their anti-slip properties.
Troubleshooting
- Socks keep falling off:
Ensure the socks are the correct size for your dog. If they are too large, they may slip. If they are too small, they may be uncomfortable and your dog might try to remove them. Check if the elastic at the top is still snug. If the elastic is stretched, the socks may need to be replaced.
- Dog is uncomfortable or tries to remove socks:
Introduce the socks gradually. Start with short periods of wear, rewarding your dog with treats and praise. Ensure the socks are not too tight or causing any irritation. If discomfort persists, consult with a veterinarian.
- Anti-slip dots are worn out:
The anti-slip dots are crucial for traction. If they are significantly worn, the effectiveness of the socks will be reduced. It is recommended to replace the socks when the dots show signs of significant wear.
