Breaking the Paw
By Izzy
To protect their feet on patrol, police dogs in the German city of Dusseldorf are being kitted out with specially-made plastic fiber shoes in a uniform-matching light blue. Not to be outdone, Dutch police dogs will be getting their very own tiny clogs.

How horribly patronising.

More people should shod their dogs. I live in an area where the temperature in the summer is regularly in the 90’s & more. I see owners walking their pups on black asphalt and the dogs are mincing because of the heat. If the pavement is too hot for you to walk on it, it’s too hot for your dogs. It’s like those people that allow their dog to hang their head out of the window of a moving car. The dog is not wise enough to know what kind of damage is being done to their eyes. It’s as if you are riding a motorcycle without goggles.

Clearly the Dutch have little or no crime because I think it must be hard to run after a perp in clogs.
