Toe problems

Good afternoon,
My Bully Bella has some sort of fungus inbetween her toes on both of her back paws. I have tried soaking them washing it out with Antibactieral wipes and it always seems to come back. Its only on her back feet and its only on the middle toes.
Any help?

The Zymox Otic cleared it up overnight!

her toes look great today!

As I have stated numerous times before soak the feet in the bath

1 cup Clorox(regular not perfumed) and about 2 gallons of water. Do this for about 5 minutes 2 times a day for as long as needed DO NOT RINSE just pat dry with an old soft towel. The Clorox will kill all fungus or yeast on the feet. It will not hurt the dog but it will bleach carpet so do not let the dog out of the bathroom until the feet are dry.

Re: It is so frustrating

Also there is no red spots or inflamation in the area just the yeast like gel like substance

I always think issues are the food..

I just switched Belle back to Canidae Lamb and Rice because her ears were getting just awful on Calif Natural. One ear is totally closed.

I think her toes are better. Hang on, I'll go look.....

Okay, one foot looks dry and cleared up, but the other one is very red and even has a little spot that is bleeding. I put some Zymox Otic on it since it was sitting on a table near her. It's an ear med, but it is an enzymatic ointment for bacterial and yeast infections. I think it looks like a yeast problem. I'll let you know the results.


Belle says thanks. She was sound asleep until I bugged her!

I am starting to think it is her food, but she has been on Royal Canin Bulldog food since she was One (she is 4 1/2 now)

My Belle has something like that...

Just between her middle toes on her back feet she gets a little blood blister and a spot that looks like a red rash on one foot and just a blister on the other foot. It comes and goes. Sometimes it's one foot and other times it's both. She never gets it between any other toes. I took her to the vet, but she didn't really offer any helpful advice. It doesn't seem to bother Belle.
