Lately I've noticed that my female dog has started chewing on her toes. She acts like they itch. She hasn't rubbed off any fur or anything. There are no sores or anything like that but she chews on them a lot. Anyone have any ideas?
My puppy has done this two separate times. The first time it wass because there was a small bur stuck in her foot that I was unable to see. I asked about it at the Vet when she got her shots and he found the bur.
She stopped for a little bit and then after her first trip to get groomed she started doing it again. I think she finally realized she had toenails then and thought she needed to get rid of them... kinda like the first time she noticed her tail. Finally, she learned those are SUPPOSED to be there and she's left them alone.
I'd just let it go for a little bit. Maybe your pup will get bored with it as mine did.
