This seems like a reasonable explanation.
See Ann, you should be happy your boys don't have 'em.  |
Interesting link, but she says, "I also have noticed that some dogs’ feet have a rather pungent odor. I’ve never heard of the term “Frito feet” before, but it is a sensible name for the syndrome if you ask me." I wouldn't describe the smell as pungent; in fact I love the smell. I wonder if she was talking about the same thing. I've never had a dog before that had this particular foot smell, and some who post here say they have had a breed of dog who shared the odor, but I forget which breed it was. I'm guessing this odor is more associated with Yorkies, or a few other breeds, rather than being associated with most breeds.
