My dog has recently been chewing on her feel/nails and I thought that her nails just needed to be clipped. I took her today to get her nails clipped by our vet, and it seemed to help. However, when we got In bed this evening, she has started chewing
Hello and thank you for using pet coach to address your concern. It sounds as though Maggie may have an allergy based on your description. I would recommend bathing her in a shampoo such as Douxo PS calm shampoo and bathe twice weekly until the resolved. I would also recommend using a spray such as malacetic conditioning spray and apply to the area until resolved. Welactin omega 3 fish oil and essential 6 spot on by dermoscent are a couple of other products I recommend which can be found online easily. I hope this helps! If there is no improvement then I would discuss other options with a veterinarian that may provide more relief using prescription medications if needed. Please let me know if you have any other questions or concerns.

Hello, 1-toothpaste:using petsmile,no complain,but pricey.Other enzymatic toothpastes like sentry petrodex,virbac cet,nutri vet are good too? Or petsmile is the best of the best? Having greenie daily too. 2-itch relief shampoo:vet suggested wash paws
Nikki is adorable! Thanks for including pictures! Yes, PetSmile is expensive, but it is one of the only toothpastes to actually be approved by the Veterinary Oral Health Council. Here is a list of their approved products. http://www.vohc.org/VOHCAcceptedProductsTable_Dogs.pdf PetSmile is what I use with my dogs. (Last year they ran a 25% off sale before Christmas, so I stocked up!) Yes, it is fine to use Dawn on Nikki's feet daily, but I suspect any gentle cleaner would be fine as well. You may have to experiment to find the best shampoo for her. I have been very pleased with EarthBath products, so you might want to try their Oatmeal and Aloe shampoo for itch relief. https://earthbath.com/product/oatmeal-aloe-shampoo/ There are also prescription itch relief shampoo and conditioner products if needed that you can talk to your vet about. Good luck! I hope that was helpful and answered your questions. Thanks for using Boop by Petco.

9 year old collie mix has hyperkeratosis on paws, she is up-to-date on shots she takes heartworm prevention, healthy coat and skin. What is the best thing to do to treat this at home
Hi there and thank you for using Pet Coach! I recommend using a product called BioBalm by Dermoscent. Bayer makes this product and you can find this easily online. For the long hair like pieces, I usually recommend having these trimmed (there are no nerves going to these pieces and it is painless to have these trimmed back). I would recommend having this done at your veterinarian's clinic where they can trim them there using clippers or a dremmel file. Once these have been made shorter, the BioBalm can be applied 3 times daily. It may take several months for this balm to work well but I have seen cases such as Allie's dramatically improve. I hope this helps! Please let me know if you have any other questions or concerns.

What product could i use to get rid fur under my 6 month old husky paws ?
Hi there and thank you for using Boop by Petco to address your question. Trimming the hair from between the toes can help prevent Luna from slipping on a hard surface such as tile and also help prevent mud and snow from building up between the toes. There are no products that I would suggest using to dissolve the fur as any chemical applied to the skin has the potential for a reaction. I always recommend using hair clippers / trimmers to remove the hair from between the toes. This is what I used for my own dog and it worked just fine. I hope this helps! Please let me know if you have any other questions or concerns and I would be more than happy to help you further.

My dog has ripped her nail off on her front paw what can i do
Thank you for using Boop by Petco. Ouch, poor Naria. If the nail is completely removed and exposing the nail bed, keep the toe as clean as possible to try to prevent infection. For my patients that have done this, I typically will place them on oral antibiotics and analgesics (pain medication) to prevent infection and keep them comfortable while the nail regrows. Some nails will not regrow normally if the nailbed was also injured. If Naria is limping on the affected paw, or the toe becomes swollen I would recommend having her seen by her veterinarian for appropriate medications to be dispensed.
