Don't do this to your pet: Owner secures plastic booties on dog with rubber bands

STOMPer Xtina spotted this Jack Russell terrier with makeshift plastic bag 'booties' on its feet, secured with rubber bands. The dog was in obvious discomfort, says the STOMPer.

"I was at Yew Tee MRT yesterday when I saw this JRT with his legs in plastic, secured with rubber bands.

"The poor boy was obviously in discomfort."

If it's booties, then i suppose it's ok. But not use rubber bands like that. It disallow the blood to circulate well in the body!!

jason7766,

I think your eyes might be blind!
If a dog is feelin so discomfortable, they "will not say out, as u had said", but they will show out instead!
Cant u see, one of the doggy's hand is putting up ?
Becuz the rubber band was to tight for the dog!
If u dunno anything about dogs or pets, please ***** off kindly! seriously! Dun comment other people know "dog language" as you, yourself dun even know , how dog show out how they feel!

Alternative ways for dog shoes, maybe the owner don't want waste money buy dog shoes then she invented her own type of dog shoes, at least it helps to prevent from the dog to have dirty legs!

don dogs hav waterproof coat of furs? they are created this way. I've notice dogs around my vicinity frolicking in the rain. It seems that they love it. And for that dog in the picture,soon it'll be pawless cos the bands gonna restrict it's blood flow to the limb and needs to be amputated lo

Sonambulist: dun pass judgement on people merely by seeing the surface of things! I have 2 dogs, I bring them out thrice daily to pee and shit. Thus during bad weather, I have no choice but to walk them in the rain too, if not they would hold their bladder for hours to wait for me to bring them out. I rather go thru the trouble of bathing and blowing them dry after I get back back home from the walk then to have them endure for long hours without relieving themselves! So I think it's unfair for u to criticize others without getting the facts right!
