Obviously all dogs are different, but maybe I can tell you about Toff' and the way we treat his issue. <br />His licking issues are most likely psychological. Our vet advised me to wash his paws thoroughly (with soap and water) when he gets into one of his compulsive licking states. Thereafter I dry them thoroughly (with a hairdryer) and leave the paws open. I keep him away from anything wet - especially the grass. <br />Strangely, this routine has REALLY helped Toffee, so now when I see him licking, that's what I do - it stops the compulsion in its tracks. In Toffee's case, it's the repeated licking that causes the sore paws. You never know, maybe this simple procedure might do the trick. But you would know best. Good luck. :)<br />Sending lotsaluv<br />MAXMOM IN SOUTH AFRICAMaxmomhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03352085013260757004noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1003916153932012549.post-90973765777514695762011-04-07T22:46:44.447-04:002011-04-07T22:46:44.447-04:00Oh dear, I hope Charlie feels better soon!

A classic yuppie-moved-to-the-country-wanting-peace-and-quiet vs. farmer-trying-to-make-a-living feud. I definitely come down on the side of the farmer, but you may want to check out the noise issue before you commit to anything!Miriamhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04500606532723836054noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1003916153932012549.post-12208427809091661902011-04-07T22:01:39.482-04:002011-04-07T22:01:39.482-04:00Guinea's are so beautiful.
