    Please, keep Anita in your thoughts

    She has been licking one of her paws a lot lately, and my dad just noticed that the skin between her toes is all red and swollen. It seems to be a really bad infection, and it looks like it hurts a lot. The poor girl always tends to hide the pain, but I'm sure that she is suffering. We're taking her to the vet now.
    Can you please keep her in your thoughts? I really hope it's not too serious, and it can be healed easily.

    okay this time of year its mold from the leaves. I would suggest washing her paws, pat dry. When she is asleep put some neosporan on it and watch for her not to lick.
    I have one but the problem is new grass in the spring. I have my rescue that licks the inside of her leg when she is stressed. I do the same with the neosporan on her as well . I try distraction and she is getting better.. now a bossy little so in so.. rofl..

    Pawsitive thoughts headed Anitas way. It does sound like an allergy from grass or leaves possibly. Lacey has that, hers got infected also. Feel better soon Anita.

    Thank you everybody. The vet said she has a kind of infection (I don't remember the name, sorry), and that she probably caused it herself by licking too much (my silly girl...)
    He gave her and injection with some antibiotic, and we'll have to put some ointment on her paw for a week.
    She's been so quiet today (the vet said it would be normal, because of the antibiotic) but I hate seeing her like that. I just want my active, happy pup back!

    I'm glad that Anita was seen by your Vet, and I am confident that she will be okay.

    Give her a big hug and kiss, just the same!!!

    Poor baby. I'm glad that you were able to take her to the Vet so
    quickly. I hope the meds help her clear up ASAP.

    Wow, what a mental picture that conjures up.

    She's still a bit sleepy, but her paw looks SO much better already.
    She knows how to take advantage of the situation though, and she's managing to be totally spoiled rotten. It's imposible to say no when she looks at you with those eyes, like saying "I feel so bad, rub my belly!!"

    That's great that it was nothing really big. Wonder why she kept licking it, probably was itchy and started to lick it a lot. Glad that it is looking much better now. After that she will be all back to her normal happy pup self.
