Any pet owners here have advice for dealing with an old dog who is starting to have trouble getting traction on hardwood floors? Bella is starting to slip and slide a bit. Not bad...Yet. She doesn't fall, but I've see her back leg shoot out from under her on occasion. I've heard of people putting down a runway of yoga mats. We have hardwoods throughout so I'd need about 100 of them and it would look so cluttered and ugly. I've seen boots but we tried those years ago for the salt covered slushy trails in new England. She freaked out when we put them on her. Like epic failure. At 15 I dont think this old dog is going to up to learning that new trick if she refused as a puppy.
