My doggie is having an issue lately where shes licking her paws until theyre raw.
This just started a few weeks ago. We noticed when she started to limp and when we looked her right front paw, it had a raw spot in the center. We took her to the vet, who just told us to put her foot in a sock, and it worked. THEN she started on the left one. Weve been socking that paw now, and spraying the paw with antiseptic and putting that bitter stuff on the sock so she wont lick at it.
I googled it and found it could be due to allergies (which I dont think it is..but I could be wrong) or it could be anxiety/boredom (which is what Im leaning towards.)
We are home alot but she misses us no matter how long we're gone. Shes a VERY social dog and likes to try and curl up in your lap when you sit down.
Do you think getting another little puppy so she could have some company would do some good? IDK what else to do. I did try giving her benadryl (after talking to the Vet) and it didnt seem to help, so thats why I dont think its allergies.
I dont know what else to do....
This is her pic attached. Her name is Charli.
