Just wanted to mention that sores on paws can also be caused by Vasculitis. (This is an auto-immune disease that is not very common, which can be caused by over vaccinating.) I have been trying to find a picture on the internet, but cannot find one easily, for you to compare. Piccolo suffered from this and her regular vet did not recognize this symptom. It is probably not, but just wanted you to have as much information as possible.
Thank You, Lisa for that helpful information. I'm going to look it up on the internet. I never heard of that before. Since Gracie came from a Puppy Mill, I wouldn't think it was from over vaccinating. Those people don't do anymore than they have to for the dogs. But it could be that, only caused by something else. I appreciate your input.

Is your Piccolo doing ok now?
