Dogs with itchy paws keep chewing their paws

Itchy paws or a red and swollen state in dogs may be a symptom of interdigital toe infection. Interdigital toe infection is a common condition in dogs, but the source of infection can be bacterial (e.g. staphylococcus), fungal, mite or a combination of infections, the most common being caused by fungus, so it is best to check your dog’s paws at the hospital if you find symptoms of itchy, red skin.
