Boots for my Bichon/Poodle puppy? Functional vs. fashionable?

So it's freezing and my six month old bichon/poodle puppy needs boots to protect his feet. That signal is clear when the poor guy starts limping. From experience, can anyone recommend good boots that are functional. They'll stay on, are meant for snow/ice and are comfortable for my puppy, etc.

The boots I bought him fly away when he hops around. While shopping for his boots, it seemed like most only satisfy accessorizing your dog or it looked like it would take quite a time to put them on.

Having a bichon/poodle pup is definitely a change from my departed German Shepherd :)

Update:

I'm located in Toronto, ON Canada

    Do an online search. I would think some site for hunting dogs or huskies would have them. My niece's husky has them, because the salt on the sidewalks burns her pads. Look for this type, because they are meant to be functional, not for looks.

    try to find some that have a zipper and a velcro.

    Dogz spa in Ottawa has them...

    You could maybe contact them to see if they know of anywhere else they are available
