At a recent industry event, we were asked, “Why is PawFriction so expensive?” We can certainly understand this concern, but the answer is summarized here.
Keep in mind that PawFriction is sourced and manufactured in the United States. Rather than saving money on using labor services sourced overseas, we employ a sheltered adult workshop to assemble the PawFriction kit and all components within the kit.
In addition, our adhesive is a specific Medical Grade cyanoacrylate and the rubber granules are certified virgin rubber (which means that it never consists of heavy metal laden found in reclaimed tires). Please keep in mind that we simply don’t cut corners – your pet’s health and safety is our number one priority!
Each kit is designed to last anywhere from 6 to 16 weeks, depending on the size of the dogs paw pads and other factors that may cause it to wear off. We anticipate that the adhesive and granules will need to be reapplied weekly.
