| I know my Frankie bites his leg all the time. I suspect its fleas... Maybe your baby is having the same problem? |

| I couldn't say for sure but if it were fleas I am sure she would be scratching and biting more than just her foot. Has she been outside? Maybe she got a little cut. I would take her to the vet or at least ask your vet if it doesn't stop and gets worse. I also remember reading something somewhere about biting the paws and allergies but like I said I can't be sure as I'm no vet...LOL! |

| My Sweetie nibbles on her feet at times. My mother's Yorkie also does the same. They live in a different city. Maybe its just something that Yorkies do?

| You might want to ask your vet if she has allergies. My Malt bites his paws all the time and it turned out he is allergic to corn! So I changed his food and he's so much better now. Now when he bites his feet it's because he's bored.
