Excessive paw licking
Started the day after she got spayed so i guess its something to do with it. How do i stop it? Put a bit of essential oils on paws to put her off only thing i could think of.

Re: Excessive paw licking
wee look online and it said can be caused by allergies, anxiety, boredom. Rule out boredom. Only thing new is her anti inflammatory medicine wonder if she's allergic to it.

Could be the meds Col. Wait till the meds are done with and see if it continues, if it does Thornit is well worth a try. It's not cheap but lasts ages and without doubt sorted one of Flo's two troublesome paws and the other is now a whole heap better.

Re: Excessive paw licking
Called the vets they think it might have been something in grass or weeds she's came into contact with and is a coincidence it started soon after spaying. Walk her on the pavement till she gets stitches out Friday.
hmm wait a min the neighbour but grass weedkiller in her garden a couple weeks ago i wonder.
