Large indoor/outdoor rugs. Overlap them if need be. Amazon has so many huge ones for such low prices

I bought my dog socks with little stickie grippy things on the bottom. Similar to what kids wear at trampoline parks. Only for his back legs, which are the ones that lose traction when standing.

I also have this great harness from Ruffwear so I can help my dog as needed when he gets stuck trying to stand up or is having trouble on stairs: https://www.rei.com/product/160684/ruffwear-flagline-harness

My mom just put down cheap rugs everywhere. Yoga mats are a great idea though!

^ This. My elderly dog actually loves to sleep on the yoga mats, too.

Is there something better than a series of nonskid runners?

Our house has hardwoods with area rugs, and our dog is still fine on the rugs, but his back legs don't always work well on smooth surfaces. I've got nonskid strips on our stairs and area rugs in the places he tends to stand, but for getting from Point A to Point B, what? There are a lot of things on the internet I'd never heard of. Has anyone tried them, or are we all just passing runners around and buying new runners as needed?
