Lives inside doesn’t go out much constantly biting paws


It sounds like your French Bulldog is experiencing some discomfort with excessive itching and redness on their paws and groin area. This could be due to a variety of factors, such as allergies, skin infections, or irritants. Even though your dog primarily stays indoors, environmental allergens or contact irritants might still be affecting them.
To help alleviate your dog's symptoms, you might consider a few steps. First, think about any recent changes in cleaning products, floor cleaners, or laundry detergents that could be causing irritation. It might be helpful to switch to hypoallergenic options if you suspect these could be the culprits.
Additionally, you can try gently washing your dog's paws with a mild, hypoallergenic pet shampoo. Alternatively, a foot soak using warm water and Epsom salts can be soothing for irritated skin.
It's also worth considering dietary factors, as food allergies can sometimes manifest as skin issues. If you think this might be the case, consulting with your veterinarian about trying a hypoallergenic diet could be beneficial.
Even though your dog stays indoors, maintaining regular flea and tick prevention is crucial, as these pests can still find their way inside and cause irritation.
Lastly, keep an eye out for any signs of infection, such as increased redness, swelling, or discharge. If you notice any of these symptoms, it would be best to visit your veterinarian for a thorough examination and appropriate treatment.
If the itching and redness persist or worsen, I recommend consulting a veterinarian to rule out more serious conditions and to receive the appropriate care. If you have any further questions or need additional assistance, please feel free to reach out. Thank you.
