Lhasa Apso Q&A

I have 12year old golden. She is constantly licking her front paws. Does it all the time. Why? What can I do to stop it? or should I?

My golden was about 10 or 11 when she started doing that. It's no concern unless there are wounds. Mine did it because she had bad arthritis and I guess it was as close to a foot massage as she could get.


your dog might have skin allergies or an infection. talk to your vet for information


My dog has done that too. For now I just keep an eye on the spot, but previously the Vet asked for her to wear a protective attachment to her collar. She is 10 years now, and she looks content when she licks this spot on her foot.
