My whole ground floor apart from the lounge is wood flooring. When Oliver runs down the stairs he often skids when he reaches the hallway. We cant play fetch in the house as he skids when he runs runs.
Im very worried he is going to slip and break something is there anything out there that you can wash the floors with that make it anti slip? I have put rugs in certain places but certainly most of the floor is uncovered. Would having his nails trimmed help?

You can get wax to put on their pads that give them a bit more grip. I used to use some on my collie when we were obedience training as he used to slide out of his sitten on the floor of the hall we trained at.

what sort of wax is that?

I think it is just called paw wax - im sure ive seen it in my local pet shop - but could be wrong and just having a silly moment

i ws just going to send you a you're having a silly moment! But i googled paw wax and they do sell it to protect and stop slipping!!!!!!!!!

oo that sounds good.....

It has quite a pleasant lemony smell - just in case you needed to know that!

im getting some today

I didn't know it could be used as a anti-skidding device though

I was told that if you put it on their paws and run a small amount through the lower feathers that it stops snow accumalating and turning into rock hard balls! Everytime it snows this happens to angel and she won't walk - meaning i have to carry 20kg of dog up hill , i then promise myself that im going to buy some and never do

FUDDSTER! TOBY NEEDS SOME OF THIS!!!!!!

Jen i don't know if it actually works though! - like i say every winter i forget to buy it. I have used a samll amount of vaseline in the past and it helps a bit with regards to snowballing of the fur!

Good to hear its just not Angel though
