Question
i have a dog 1 year he has recently being picking at his front paw licking and biting it and with some welping can you suggest anything

Answer
Check his paw really well to make sure he doesn't have anything in his pads or between his toes.  He may have stepped on something or even gotten stung by an insect or bitten by a bug.  If you see something that looks like a bite, you could put a little benedryl cream or some other anti-itch cream, but make sure you cover it so your dog doesn't just lick it off.  If you don't see anything and he continues to lick and chew, I'd take him to the vet.
