Dog Paw Licking Recipe
One of the most frustrating things to see is your dog obsessively licking his paws, especially when that’s all that seems to matter. Dogs who lick their paws excessively often develop stains on the fur of their feet from their saliva. The area between the pads can be red, inflamed, swollen and painful to touch.
What’s causing it? There are many possibilities, but the most common cause by far is allergies, with secondary yeast infections.
So what to do?
Here is a topical anti-allergy/anti-yeast recipe that can help
Ingredients The green tea is antibacterial, the ACV is effective for yeast, the salt is antibacterial and will also take down some of the swelling, and the lavender oil offers anti-yeast and some antihistamine qualities to help with the allergy.
Directions: Brew up 1 cup of green tea, then allow to cool for 15mins. Add in the ACV, Salt and Lavender Oil. Soak the affected feet for 5 minutes twice daily. Assess after 7 days if this is beneficial.
