Why Does My Dog Chew On Her Feet?

It might be a nervous disorder, call your vet and ask them if you should bring her in, or take her to a trainer or behaviorist. Maybe one of them can help her to break the habit. Hope this helps, good luck.

There are several reasons for a dog chewing its feet. Some dogs have habit of chewing their paws and some do it when they are relaxing or getting bored. However, sometimes dogs chew their feet when they get irritated because of itch or pain.

Our year old German Shepard dog recently started chewing and licking her paws, paw pads and in between her paw-'toes.' The vet put her on an antibiotic and we have to wash her paws with prescribed anti-yeast pads twice a day and don't let her lick again until it is dry. She also got a steroid shot. It has only been one day but the improvement in her behavior is remarkable! We are glad we took her to the vet for treatment.
