Paws-tively preposterous or purr-fect? Divas weigh-in on pet shoes

It’s no secret many of the Divas are fond of man’s best friend. Maria totes around her Chihuahua, Gemini, in his own special bag; Lena Yada is in love with her rescue mutts, Kiba and Kiara; and Torrie Wilson’s Maltese, Chloe, has even seen WWE ring time.

In Germany, police dogs now wear booties while on duty, protecting the public. The Divas will go to any length to love and protect their pooches (and in some cases, kitties), but would they outfit their four-legged friends in shoes?

Beth Phoenix, whose pets include Sonya the German Shepard and “Glamadog” Hope, a Yorkshire Terrier, believes that every precaution should be taken when it comes to protecting working dogs.

“You know, it may look a little bit silly, but if it avoids an injury to the dog, I support it. But the big question is, are the shoes cute? Do they have diamonds on them? Is there something sparkly?” she laughed.
