| Paw chewing My yorkie is 3 with no known health problems and in great shape. He always cleans and licks his paws. However, the last 2 days it's been CONSTANT 24/7 licking and chewing. I can see the skin is a bit raw/red/pink. Before i go to the vet, i wanted to know if anyone has experienced this? Any advice? There has been no change in diet or routine. I have washed the paws as well. Thanks |

| Environmental allergies or yeast overgrowth or maybe both...needs to be seen by vet to get some relief. They can also do skin scraping w/cytology if needed to see if it's bacterial or yeast, etc.
