Testimonials

Anyone who is battling the problems of physically challenged dogs knows how difficult it is to stay ahead of debilitating problems. They arise so quickly. Keeping a dogs feet protected is one of the most important things one can do to avoid sores and infections from occurring.

Carol takes great pride in her workmanship and makes sure that the boots fit well. This essential aid will provide comfort and extend the health of your dogs paws. I highly endorse these booties.

Thank you Carol,
Nina

Words can not express how grateful I am to Carol for making custom made booties and slippers for my paraplegic animals. By wearing their booties they no longer get the sores that are caused when they drag their limbs thus allowing them to get around without being in pain and enabling them to live a more normal life.

The booties are wonderful – they've made it possible for Kate to use and enjoy using her cart. I can't thank you enough. Kate it so much happier now that she can get out of the house and go for walks again.

We've been recommending Carol's booties for our clients at Eddie's Wheels for Pets for over a year. As the owner of a disabled dog herself, Carol knew what she needed in a bootie to protect her dog's feet as Tammy became more and more neurologically impaired. Carol's booties are cushy, comfortable, and well-made. They wear well and look great - and she's always looking for ways to improve her product.

Hi Carol,

I just want to let you know that we absolutely love the booties and It is very comfortable for Jake to walk on. He doesn't love anything on his paws but because it will help him walk outside this is the best bootie we have found for him.

We will keep you in our needs of booties for the future and greatly thank you very much and we wish you and your family the best Holiday yet! Here are some pictures of Jake on his bootie.

Thanks again,

The Joyces
Jake, Jim & Blanche

Hi Carol,

Here are a couple of pictures of Buck in his booties! I hope these make it on your web site!

Thanks,

Hi Carol -

Here's a couple pictures of Willie in his new boots! He loves them and they look great! Let me know if they come through okay and if they're what you were looking for. Thanks for making them for him!!!

I have two Pembroke Welsh Corgies who began having back problems within months of each other. Although they each have a different problem, they both have one thing in common: they badly needed some boots to protect their back paws from "knuckling" and dragging. Store-bought, "off-the-rack" boots just didn't work. They didn't fit right, they didn't stay on.... Then I found Tammy and Teddy's.

What a great find! Carol has a wide variety of boot types, and every pair is custom made for the pet who will wear it. The very best part is that I discovered that two pairs of custom designed T&T boots actually cost less than a four-boot set of ready-made boots from my local pet store. And these boot stay on my dogs! Not to mention Carol's attention to detail and willingness to experiment. Not just a "Dog Boot Maker," Carol is a Designer of a quality therapeutic product.

It may seem like a lot of bother to obtain all the measurements Carol wants to make a pair of dog boots, but the finished product is more than worth the effort. My dogs' boots fit them perfectly, and I'm sure that's one reason they stay on so well. Tammy & Teddy's is a quality company making and selling a quality product for a super price. Who could possibly ask for better?

Hey Carol,

I had to write and tell you about another use for your pup-boots. I am currently fostering a rescue Corgi who was a victim of severe neglect, if not outright abuse, in a puppy-mill breeding situation. Willow came to us with a badly damaged right eye which later had to be removed. Because she is so timid, I was reluctant to place an Elizabethan ("lampshade") collar on her to protect her stitches as she recovered from the surgery, but I was concerned that she was going to damage her incision with all the scratching she was doing. I decided to try placing one of the boots you made for my old man, Tucker (the late Wonder Corgi,) on the Willow's back foot, on the "surgery side." Carol, it's working great! The boot is smooth and soft enough that, although Wil still tries to scratch a little, she can't do herself any damage while she wears her boot. It's been on her for a week now, with no signs of slipping, turning or sliding off. (Of course, I've checked her foot several times during the week, but no adjusting has been necessary.)

Even though this pair of boots wasn't made for Willow, they fit great. She's a much smaller Corgi than Tucker was, but then, Tuck had some really "dainty" feet for his size. The boot I'm using now is from the very first pair you made us, and they still look new after, what, about 12 months? Thanks so much, Carol, once again, for providing a truly quality product.

Carol,
We received your booties about two weeks ago. These booties are the most gorgeously made ones I have ever seen (and I've seen a lot!) Both girls are wearing them nearly full-time now. They stay on the girls' feet, and for the first time in months, neither girl has open sores on her feet or bleeding toenails. THANK YOU CAROL! I cannot tell you what it does for my heart to NOT have to worry about sores and infections on Sarah and Beatrice.

I was so under-impressed with the booties I had been using (they lasted a few hours before parts of their feet were exposed) that I though I was going to have to make booties myself. I even had a note to myself to go talk to our local shoe-repair man to see what leather scraps and wisdom he might have to offer. Then Leslie from Eddie's Carts pointed me in your direction, thank goodness! My full-time job is going at a frantic pace, and finding time to make bootie prototypes was just not happening. Now that I have found you, knowing that I can get well-made booties for a reasonable price (without making them myself!) is such a huge relief! Frankly, I know I couldn't make them this well at home, at least not for the first several batches. These booties are the best investment I ever made for foot protection for my girls.

Would you please make me a second pair for each girl, since the booties are comfortable enough that they are wearing the booties a LOT? It would be good to be able to switch off, so the booties can get cleaned and dry. Neither pair shows any signs of use, besides a little dirt. One DID get a little chewed up by Eva, my puppy, so if you can make the next pair chew-proof, that would be great. ;-) As far as I can tell, chewing is the only way to damage these booties.

Thank you SO much!

P.S. I'm attaching a photo of Sarah at a recent GSD Rescue picnic, where she received LOTS of compliments on her stylish footwear!

Dear Tammy and Teddy's,

What a joy to be able to hike with Woody on the Appalachian Trail, no less. He was struggling on just our walks in the neighborhood and I was trying to devise foot coverings with thick fabric and adhesive tape to protect his feet and nails. Your boots were recommended in a couple of the postings on the Wheelcorgis site. I was dubious because of the trouble of keeping anything on his feet, but decided it was strong praise, so needed to give it a shot. After talking with you on the phone and ordering, the boots came and THEY WORK! They stay on and actually seem to help with picking up his feet and foot placement, as well as protecting his feet. I also got a soft pair for inside- very comfy and stylish. I have already recommended you to two other individuals and my vet's office. Thank you for such a useful and well made product, and the care with which they are made. It helps a tough situation much happier for owner and dog.

With best regards.
Margie Capell and Woody

Hi Carol:

I just want to thank you again for making the tiny slippers for my Chihuahua last fall. I'm thanking everyone who helped her in her life. On April 15, 2008 she passed away at home with us. She was so strong willed and such a fighter, but she was still a terminally sick dog. I miss her and love her more than I could ever express and every day was a blessing with her.

Thank you again for make a difference in lives like Greta's!
