I just made 2 quarts of nettle infusion this morning for a friend visiting who had an allergic reaction to something on her trip here and is broken out in hives terribly. I clicked on the video because my dog has a licking issue. It's not just on his feet. It's more he lacks the surface of where ever he is laying at the moment!

@@taniagomez1685I’ve been using the ACV and coconut oil twice a day for about7 days now and one of my babies paws are extremely worse then before I used this remedy.his little toes are so HUGE,he’s a chihuahua terrier mix of some sort but paws look to belong on a German shepherd dog.hes licked more and not only swollen but very red and almost ALL his fur gone.i just now seen this. I’m usually sitting on couch and him on my lap and use the flat cotton balls and have never rinsed. So in thinking let it sit about 10-15 mins then rinse thoroughly. But in also waiting for Dr to reply on this. Hopefully he’ll see our comments soon cuz my baby is MISERABLE.his ears are also the same exact same way. I’m going to give paws and ears a break for few days to see if they can air out/dry out and redness and swelling go down but still use Benadryl for itch and inflammation

It's good to see a veterinarian that doesn't want to throw a bunch of drugs into your dog system. Thank you very much to this wonderful person here

[@user-mf3qk9zt3r]

My dog has the interdigital cysts and was diagnosed with Atopic dermatitis. The regular vet put her on Aproquil. When I learned it can cause harm I took her off it. She had huge flareup and shot her with a $200 steroid. I was then referred to a dermatologist Vet who put her on cyclosporine and prednisone. They wanted her on Aproquil and I said no way. Not good. They only suggest drugs, chlorox foot baths. She turned 2 yrs last Oct. I pray these drugs haven't caused harm. I understand they can cause diabetes, Cushings, cancer, etc. I see where none of this is helping her. I'm taking her off all drugs & will try your recommendations. I'm frustrated and no longer will cram these dangerous drugs down her throat. I don't intend on seeing the dermatologist vet any longer either. It's a money grab. I'm on SS and can't afford throwing money away possibly putting my dog in harm's way with these drugs. Thank you for your help.

[@mfp4136]

You need to get the flare up under control so needs the antibiotics (hit hard and fast). If very bad, get onto cortisone). Bath 3 times per week with Malsaseb medicated shampoo lather and leave on for 10m then rinse thoroughly. Be sure to get it into the joules when the bacteria can grow. Every morning spray with Chlorhexidine 1% (hand sanitizer) mixed 40:60 water and every evening, powder with Dakarin (foot powder, it’s an anti fungal) to keep skin dry over night. Treat the bad areas with Savlon cream or Dermaid. Once under control, bath 1/week and keep up the spray & powder routine. If the hotspots are oozing, wipe off with warm wet cloth and treat with savlon (it’s also chlorhexine hydrochloride) but cream so goes on thicker. I also treat the elephantiasis area with QV bath oil 50/50 mix with water. Massage it into the skin. Dry area around the eyes, I use Dermaid. You’ve also got to keep the ears clean. You need your vet to prescribe ear drops that you can use at least 1/wk. Use a tissue to wipe out the black gunk but be very gentle and don’t try to get everything. The drops will loosen it up and your pup will shake it out. My GSD is now 8 and has suffered with this for yrs. The flare ups can be very distressing so you must get on top of it. Then regular maintenance is the only way to manage.

[@mfp4136]

Rub the shampoo into the paws. And dry your dog after bath. Use a hair dryer but careful of the temperature. Basically the aim is to keep the skin dry and moisturised, and the inflammation under control. The bacteria and fungi love that damp wet environment on your dog. As for the allergies, the best we can do is manage the reaction.

[@willowsoul3]

Same here. One took Apequel and one has Cushing from steroids. The medical industry all the way around sucks.!

[@petrahartog5934]

Teatree shampoo can help . It calm's the skin and helps with itching. Prednison is the last thing I would ever try because it can cause a lot of damage ! Vitamine B12 can also help the skin recover and can't be overdosed or have side effects . I hope your dog feels better soon

Oh, my adult mini poodle (an inch over a toy poodle) is same. He actually licks not just the top of paws but the pawpads. His pawpads are black so it is harder to determine, but between pawpads there is nothing. But I smell pee on back pawpads, when he pees he sometimes steps on it accidentally. I use pet wipes, and i wash his paws only with thin shampoo (meaning more water than shampoo) before a week is over. When dry i use a coconut oil based paw cream. His kibble is small breed lamb and rice, It has no chicken, corn or wheat that are the usual culprits. His treats are tiny cubes single ingredient freeze dried venison or duck, but not even daily,. He is a healthy weight.

Thank you for this info!! I have an 11 year old male that recently got a mass cell tumor on his nose. It wouldn’t heal and going to the vet stresses him way too much.

My dog is a rescue that survived horrible abuse in his first year of life. When I adopted him he would excessively fixate on licking the undersides of his front paws. After settling in to his new life and routine he has quit licking his paw pads. I figure it was a pacifying action like a kid sucking his thumb. Now after 5 years with him he seldom licks his paw pads only when bored.

[@rockarollawmn]

Coming from the holistic veterinary field with over 2 decades experience- people need to know as far as that first suggestion with the licorice, it can cause blood pressure issues. So they need to be very cautious in using that or avoid licorice if their dog has been diagnosed with or is taking any medication that can affect the blood pressure.

[@trytellingthetruth.2068]

It was a pet shop owner that told me my dog had a food allergy after my vet put him on medication that he would need for the rest of his life. Turned out he was allergic to wheat and gluten. I lose all trust in my vet after that. Years later my dog needed an operation for a slow growing MCT, so I went to another vet and they successfully carried out the operation. January 2022 I take my dog back to the same vet that operated on him because of skin flare up on his back paws. This time they gave him a drug called Apoquel but what my vet didn't tell me was, it comes with a warning to not be given to dogs with a history of, or existing tumors, whether they be benign or malignant. My dog had both and my vet knew this to be the case. To cut a long story short, he was operated on for the second time due to the effects of the drug on his tumor, which again was successful, but unfortunately got lymphoma and had to be put to sleep. Do not give Apoquel to your dog if they have ANY lumps or bumps or a history of possible tumors. The after effects are killers.

Thanks for your input! I have a beagle that has allergies, licks her feet all the time till they are irritated and was getting the cytopoint shots but they are not really helping now. She always suggested apoquil, all that stuff gets expensive also!

[@lynneedes3687]

My dog was also getting these stick like sharp needles stuck in his paws and ears. I think here in California they call them "foxtail weeds". I went on Amazon and after trying a few types of boots that he would not keep on his feet, I finally found a pair with enough Velcro to go around each foot, that he always wears now, everyday when he goes outside! They also might help your baby! You can always return them if he doesn't like them! But, maybe you should give them a try! They helped my guy!😊

My best mate had this problem. I took him to the vet. She put him on Cytopoint monthly injections. After the second shot he started coughing and fainting. After the fourth shot he walked outside and died. Cytopoint killed him by disruption of natural cytokines, that then initiated Lymphatic cancer.

[@wendycreati4245]

Aw I am so sorry foe you loss how traumatic for you that worries me for my little one has injection every 4 weeks for this problem

[@shellyt7906]

Sorry this happened to you. My dog also died after Cytopoint injections. She developed IMHA where the red blood cells attack themselves. We tried to save her with blood transfusions but it did not work. It was horrific to watch. When we took her to the emergency clinic, the vet asked if she had any vaccinations lately and she had Cytopoint exactly two weeks before that. Vet said that my dog wasn’t the first they’ve seen die after Cytopoint. It’s not a typical vaccine. It disrupts their immune system. I wish I would have researched before taking her in for that shot. I was very trusting of certain professionals before this experience. Not so much anymore. Now, I watch videos like this to find more holistic ways to treat ailments.

[@Sweetdreamsatthebeach]

I have read on many sites that Tea Tree Oil is very bad for both cats and dogs. Unfortunately, of all the toxic scents for dogs, tea tree oil is one of the most dangerous, as this oil is often highly concentrated. Even a few drops of pure 100% oil can cause clinical signs in pets. Deaths have been reported in companion animals following dermal application of tea tree oil.

Tf ur dog's nails get near that point tf??? Ya shouldn't have a fkn dog smh.

[@Anna-g1t4z]

Dr.Jones you are simply the best. Thank you for this recipe. My dog has been licking his paw non stop. I'm doing the recipe now. I pray it will work for my dog.🙏

I had to add something as my pitbull has allergies and her paws were horrible, with blisters even on the top and her fur was starting to crack with these blisters bubbling up, A vet who was learning from Mi. State found that you can do this so I got a small baby pool or pet pool about 30" diameter .. and put 1 cup of bleach to 10 gals of water and then soak the dogs paws for 15mins... this was amazing and my dogs paws cleared up in less than 2 weeks and believe me when I say they were bad... I felt so helpless.. the Vet where I had taken my dog was really no help at all.. they wanted to do test after test then give me some cream that I had to apply for god knows how long then charge ME $500.00 and I had to do all the work.. I'm like hell no.. there has to be a better way.. and I found this little treatment from a wonderful person who was studying to become a vet,... also wanted to say Thank you so very much Dr.Jones for all you do.. the world needs more people in it like you.. Peace

Your videos have just started coming up and so glad you make these videos. Love that you’re using natural alternatives. I figured out mine was likely yeast and found I just needed to go back to bathing once or twice a week.

[@PeacePlease.]

Gee, now I feel stupid!? I thought she constantly licks her paws & cleans herself like a cat is cos she grew up in a home with cats, B4 I adopted her!? THANKS 4 Educating!! TERRIFIC CHANNEL - Just tuned in 2day & have already watched 3 of your videos!! Appreciate all the suggestions - ESP the home care & remedies. I'm big on natural & do it yourself & DON'T like the vets around here, that my previous dog HATED going to. This baby is old & Gold, God bless her!! You're such a Blessing - Shine ON!!

[@clairetanguay1927]

I love all your suggestions.

Thank you Dr. Jones! Thank you Tula! 👍 👍

[@karenhardy7964]

Thank you doc! I truly appreciate your help and support. ❤

[@nankidd3050]

Dr.jones what would be good for a dog on antibiotics who has diarrhea. Thx

[@davidmurling4252]

Very good advice. Most people will use common sense and make sure the tea has cooled and will not stick their dogs paw in hot or too warm tea. Unfortunately, we do have lots of people in the world who just simply have no common sense.

[@MsSam805]

Tula is such a good sport!! ❤

[@HDvids101]

What a great vet.

[@MissDoreen]

Oh, thank you so much for all of these OTC remedies for dogs. I am on a modest income and this is so valuable and priceless information. I love my dog Ginger so much and veterinarians can be really really expensive. Thank you for your love of animals and if you have a video for flea alternatives, could you please post it thank you so much have a blessed day Namaste.🤙🏽♥️🐾

[@VeterinarySecrets]

Hi there, here is a video about flea remedies alternatives: kzbin.info/www/bejne/bmHWhGyni5WKfKM

[@nikolhyack1832]

Thank you, for all that you do, every time I have an issue with my dog I always search for an answer that you may have, and 99.percent of the time you do and I prefer to take the natural route before going with chemical medication. Again thank you for all that you do God bless😊

[@jeffsmutny1187]

Hi Doc, Thanks for all you do. On the licorice root, do you just take the tincture and squirt it down the dog's throat or dilute it with water or some such liquid? Thank you so much

[@ginawiggles918]

*@Jeff Smutny:* My question too! I didn't hear him say if the licorice root tincture is applied topically or given orally? I listened twice. I guess he doesn't read comments or answer questions. 🤷🏽 Have you bought the product & tried it? [Edit] I read more comments and saw the same question....it's given to the dog *ORALLY.* I guess it's up to you whether to dilute it a bit or not. I might try to disguise the taste by mixing it with a small spoonful of vanilla ice cream.

[@angelabowers1222]

​@gina wiggles Thank you for giving this information! I couldn't figure out whether it was to be given orally or topical. The video didn't say, Google wasn't clear so I was trying to find out in the comments. Now I can help my poor little Yorkie! So thank you again for sharing!

[@arliniadrummonds4529]

Do you apply the licorice root to the paws? Or do you administrator the licorice root orally?

[@tammyrawdon3587]

He said "orally" to someone else who asked.

[@almadeluz501]

LOVE this channel! One of the most informative and amazing channels ever. God bless your gorgeous soul Dr 💕💕💕

[@AngelsInOurMidst]

My pug(s) also lick their paws out of boredom & after they get their eye drops for keratitis. To avoid those dreaded interdigital infections I walk them through either a betadine foot wash or baby pool with fresh water in the summer.

[@ladyono1274]

If you could give a list of the items you need and where to get them would be great.

[@dezzyg744]

Thank you sooo much for video, for someone who is very tight on money but still trying to take care of her German Shepherd this greatly helped 🖤🖤

[@yo-rourke3718]

Thank you I didn't know why my dog licked her paws 🐾 so I think in summer time is when she licks her paws the most , now I know what to do thanks to you Dr. 🙌

[@tammyrawdon3587]

Mine is worse in summer, too. It seems to be from the buttercups growing in my yard, so that's something to consider.

[@wknfriends4138]

Oh My you are such a blessing! Ty so much for helping us dog owners out here who love them like our children and want what's best for them! Even when we can barely afford the vet bills and buy food for our selves!
