Hello,My dog has constantly...

Question
Hello,
My dog has constantly been licking the pads of her paws.  It's making them red and irritated.  Why is she doing this?  How can I get her to stop?

Answer
Hi Gina!  Paw licking is one of the biggest signs of an allergy.  Most common dog allergies are caused by the ingredients in the dog's food.  Talk to your veterinarian about an allergy diet for her.  I have a shih tzu with horrible allergies and I have found Solid Gold brand dog food to work wonders with his allergies.  Maybe your dog would find this helpful too!
Best of luck!
