Hibiclens – Antimicrobial and Antiseptic Soap and Skin Cleanser – Foaming Pump Included – 16 oz – for Home and Hospital – 4% CHG

Is there something between her toes/in her paw pad that is causing irritation? Is there a cut? Has she been in a body of water recently? Some bodies of water can cause skin irritation and washing paws (if not her full body) can help curb the affects. One body of water, my boy would get rashes all around his neck, under chin, back legs, hips, on his legs SO after the first vet visit, he would get a full body wash in Veterinary Formula (Antiseptic and Antifungal Medicated Shampoo) when we got home. I use COAT DEFENSE (Preventative Powder) in my boy’s ears if they get a bit funky; it can be used over the body, including paws. For paws just make sure to wash the paws thoroughly, then dry very well (use the blow dryer if no high velocity dryer), then apply the powder. Probably a little toddler sock to keep the powder between toes and not let him get to his feet. Does she have allergies? I know “feathers” (chicken, turkey, duck, etc.) is a common protein allergy in PWDs. I have use Hibiclens (Antimicrobial and Antiseptic Soap and Skin Cleanser) on wounds— dog and human. Allergies; go to the vet and get a skin culture and do allergy testing if you think it may be allergy-related. Are they fed food with “feathers” (ie: poultry, turkey, quail, etc)? fish should be the main source of protein. Lots of reading of labels on future food products (my first PWD was allergic to chicken & all forms of peas). Is she getting enough exercise, both mentally & physically? That could be why she’s licking her paws. If she is licking, redirect the licking. Either give her a toy or bone for her to hold/chew on vs her foot. Short term (very temporary) you could try blocking access to her paw with a toddler sock.
