I'd check with the vet. If he has issues between his toes too, you're dealing with allergies and/or some sort of immune thing. I'd think it would bother him (!!!!), I know I'd want answers and a dog show would be the least of it!

Has anyone had this problem and what did you treat it with. Is it a yeast infection, allergy, bacteria? He does have some redness between his toes now too. I've heard of all sorts of remedies. Bag Balm, Witch Hazel, Oatmeal remedy, hot spot, and more. I've used hot spot remedy, and it cleared up, now back again. I am soaking him in weak betadine and water in the bathtub and using skin/hot spot remedy. Of course I have a dog show coming up and it does bother him. Any suggestions would be helpful. I think a trip to the vet is in the future....... LuAnn ============================================================================ POST is Copyrighted 2012.
