Okay, so this thread is over two months old now and I would hope you've found a solution, but just in case you haven't I'll answer anyway.
You need to edit the slots, not the footprint.
If you are using s4studio then go to the rig/slot editor tab and change the values so that the little purple triangles all sit on top of the object where you want your pets to rest.
I don't know how to change them in any other program.
