Thought I would ask.. My chihuahua has been licking her front paws excessively. She actually wakes me up in the middle of night.Her pads were raw, so I took her to a pet dermotologist two days ago. She has quite an infection and yeast in both. He gave her a shot of antibiotics and prescribed fluconazole for fungus and an antihistamine. She is a little better but still licking... But not as bad. Do you think it will take awhile to heal that's why she is still licking? Her food is grain free. And she has had issues in past with licking paws, just never this bad. I am assuming it still hurts her so she licks them at this point for comfort? I don't want to even leave her alone because she will continue to and they will get worse. Has anyone's dog had this problem?
