Any suggestions on a scraped foot pad? We went for a

walk the other day and for some reason he scraps his left paw all the time. But this time he scraped the top & bottom and is sore. I put neosporin on it and then he licks it off!

bag balm!

make sure it's really clean and free of any debris firstly!  Then I'd recommend using bag balm to help ease the irritation!  You can get it at any drug store (I've seen it at both Walgreens and CVS).  It's super cheap and if you take the time to rub it in it'll still do it's work even if he trys to lick it off. :)  It's also great for winter time and the dry pads and noses caused by the cold weather. :)

Well Shannon your a paw saver!!! He's actually walking on it

today! I did get a flashlight and found deep in some crevas between toes another sore underneath. Look like it had drained! Yuck! Poured a lil peroxide in it to clean it - man he flew off my bed! ha ha didn't like that! But the bag balm soothed him - and is doing better Thanks Again!
