Slip hazard
Hi - you covered an article on slippery floors, I think in 2011 or 12 and there were links to various products.
I’ve tried paw wax to no avail but in the article it had a cleaner that coated the floor (laminate) with millions of minuscule beads which enabled the dog to gain grip.
I'd love to know the answer to this as I know a few people with the same problem and the paw wax doesn't work and boots aren't really intended for all day use. I did have a google but couldn't really find anything, I did find this company who might be able to help you http://www.handlsolutions.co.uk/ although they don't look cheap! Astonish do a anit-slip floor cleaner but I've no idea how good it is. If you do find out what it is please re-post!
You could use some grip boots - their are plenty of boots for dogs available that are slip-free.
