Does anyone know where I could get a good pair of sneakers for Ike? His paws are large (3.25W x 3.75L). I'm not sure if this is average for a Bully or not since he's the first one I've owned.
I'm looking for comfort but also if they could be something kinda cool looking as well, that would be great.
Thanks!

Welcome to the site. I really don't see many doggie shoes in the stores, I have no idea where to get them, what I do know is Vegas would not in a million years wear them!! lol, he hates to even have on a shirt or sweater.

Thanks. Please keep the input coming!
I rescued Ike about 6 weeks ago. When I got him he was lethargic, had a double ear infection, infections in both eyes and all four paws were swollen about twice the size of normal, raw and bloody. He was filthy and completely neglected.
Since we got him he has added so much to the happiness of my family. He's mellow but playful and loaded with personality.
I've never owned a BD before but I have to say he is absolutely awesome!
I'm thankful for websites and forums such as this that can provide information, advice and support to the Bulldog owner community.
Keep up the good work!

Sorry, no help here. But I'm giggling right now thinking of nike hightops on our bullies. What a great idea for a company. =P

I've never heard of sneakers for dogs!! That sounds too cute. I'm getting a little flash back of the original Air Bud, here. :)

Delilah wouldn't wear them. I bought her booties for the snow and she can't stand them!

I am sure you could find some child size sneakers that would work well. That is so wonderful that you rescued! If you find any please take pictures and share, I bet that would be SOO cute!

I read somewhere on here that someone used shoes from Build a Bear. They may work. They're round-ish like his paws. If I find something I'll be sure to take pics and post them.
Thanks again for the input. And I updated my profile so everyone can see Ike. He's so bad-a**!!!!

OMG! Those are the coolest and cutest things I've ever seen. Unfortunately I think they're all too small. Ikes paws are over 3" wide. But that definitely gives me hope. He would look awesome in them to go along with his spiked leather collar.
Thank you so much! I'm loving this forum more and more! :lmao:
