Please do NOT give your dog aspirin. Licking her paws is probably not from arthritis at only 6 years of age. it could be allergies or she could be doing it out of habit. some dogs just lick and chew on their feet because they were never corrected to not do it. some dogs do it when they are bored. its a habit that should be stopped because they can create infections between their paw pads.
