1. Epsom Salt - The one I use is a local brand called Tum Din. I recommend finding a brand that is all natural 100% pure magnesium sulfate. This one I use is effective but I just realize it may not be the best one.

I tried everything that the Vet told me to use, and then ideas I got here on You tube. The only thing that worked 100% without it coming back was CVS Antiseptic Skin Cleanser (chlorhexidine gluconate 4% lotion) this is a generic brand because the regular one is more expensive, My dog had yeast on her groin and stomach area, also around the folds on her face. I diluted this with a little water and washed the area for a few days in the morning. I also soaked her paws in this solution, and cleaned ther ears with a small amount on a cotton ball. Within a week it was totally gone and has not come back. That was my problem before, it always came back, things would work if I did them everyday, or for awhile. It has never come back, but I still use a more diluted form to wash her twice a month, just because it is so good. I hope this helps.
Thank you so much for this!!!
A teaspoon of apple cider vinegar in about 3 cups of water... soak paws 1-2x everyday until issue is gone and then 2x a week to maintain clean paws will do the trick as well (:
Selma, That an excellent ideal,and it works! DO NOT USE ACV IF WOUND IS OPEN!
and I'd think it would be easier to have the liquid in a baggie, and put the paw in the baggie- easier on the pup than pressing a paw (possibly at an odd angle) into a bowl - doing this outside so if it spills a bit, no big deal.
@@TZ2OurLittleDogToo now that is a great idea.
This is what I do too
Seriously, this is a fantastic idea. Thank you so much. I we to do this tomorrow and report back how it works out.
I used your method for my dogs feet. I am awestruck how she immediately stopped the paw licking. After 8 hours I released the procedure and my border collies feet are looking amazing after only three treatments! I can’t believe that she’s not been licking at all where she had licked areas raw. All is healing well. Thank you for your video and information.
I repeated not released lol auto correct

WHAT A GREAT DOG!
This Roquefort is really a fountain of pleasure. One never gets tired of seeing him 🙂🙂🙂🙂👍👍👍👍👍
Yes, roquefort is very sweet. So happy to hear he is a fountain of pleasure. Thank you❤️
Aw what a good boy!
TRY THIS.....I have tried everything what I found that really works, I mix cornstarch with a little bit of warm water and paste it on with an old make up brush. Finally, a remedy that works. I do have to reapply it sometimes. But he is going for two and three days without licking his paws now. And since Corn starch is a food item, it is completely safe.
You are such a good doggy mama.
He is such a sweetheart 😍
He loves it what a cutie😍
What a beautiful boy! Very nice looking bulldog. He is absolutely adorable and I love his big fat pink paws. He is so very cute. What a face!!!
Awwww Roquefort is so cute!!!!

Thank you
Whoo! that dog got some big paws. 🐾
Thank you I'm going through the redness on Raider's feet, I'm going too try, thank you.
Thank you so much for this information. I have a one-year-old Border Collie I'm from Toys R Us feeling pinkish as well as the back my doctor gave me some type of spray to put on her but she doesn't like it I will definitely try your remedy probably during the week since I'm so busy I really want to say thank you so much for telling people about you and I really hope it works I do have Epsom salt and was bottled water that you have a tea kettle and I will definitely bought some water. Thanks so much for this information
He is so cuteee
❤🎉❤❤❤❤❤❤ I am so happy to to see this
Thanks
Thanks I was worried 😟
Thanks for the video! I noticed my dog licking her paw which she never did before. And her paw hair looking rusty colored. I looked closer and it looks irritated and inflamed. I did get epsom salt but I’m a dummy and didn’t desolate it lol. So now I know how to do a proper soak. Hopefully heal her up nice and good. I’m guessing something on the grass or ground during the park or one of our walks irritated her.
Such a good boy aww cute nice video 🙏💜
This was very good information. I'm going to start this process with my American bully. Beautiful dog by the way.
Did it help?
Thanks a lot Msm pl give one remedy for itching problem to my pet Lhashpso
Roquefort is to cute ❤
Thanks so much for the information. In case my dog leaks the water is it bad??
Love Roquefort.
Awesome video... my pitbull had the same problem... such shame I only found you guys now... wish I could have seen this video before I lost my boy 😢😢😢
So sorry for your loss...couldn’t imagine how you feel.thank you so much for watching 😊
Did he die because of this?
@@wembleyflores2678 nah, he survived
@@miderafael so I’m assuming he died but not to this but to something else
video start at 3:36
Thank you so much for your video this gave me the answers that I was looking for I was feeling terribly concerned about my dog he has very bad outbreak of the same what looks to be the same thing on his paws we've taken him to a vet they put him on antibiotics but it was a low cost that near us that couldn't do any lab tests or anything so the antibiotics really haven't done much and now I understand that it's probably not a bacterial infection as they originally thought but sis I'm going to try your treatment we have a follow-up appointment with his main vet coming up in a couple of days but I was severely worried as most parents I'm sure do I assume to be overly freaked out as a mama with no information this was so helpful thank you so much!! Especially for the close-ups and the visual aids it's obvious to me that it's the same thing I have been able to find anywhere else online that actually does that they just talk about it and don't really show you details I also thought The Epsom salt baths for possibly drying his feet out too much and making them crack but now I know that it may have to do with the infection or just outside factors from nature I will talk to my vet about it but I now know that Epsom salt will actually help with the moisture problems so thank you for clearing that up for me glad to know and I will be more frequent with his Epsom salt baths thanks again, you have gained a new follower can't wait for the next video
Any updates?
@@ms.crystal8280 +,
Aquaphor is great after the soaking&once the paws r dry..
Going to try this on our pocket American bully she’s having this issue on her paws and belly
He's so sweet and adorable 🥰
I have a French Bulldog and he has the same issue. I am going to try this hopefully it works! Thanks for posting.
How did it go?
@@TC-gx8wm Worked very well!
Did it heal already?
I just ran across your video. My dog is having the exact same problem with her feet I followed your instructions step-by-step and today is day one. I will come back in a couple of days with an update thank you so much for your video it was very easy to follow and I really appreciate that
Did it work?
How’s look?
I'm sorry it took me a while to comment back. Ive had a lot going on. For my dog I started the day I left the comment and for a couple weeks really couldn't tell a difference, but decided to keep it up and I'm glad I did. She is now slowly but surely getting better! The key is doing it 3 times a day and sticking with it. I didn't use the cream, just the Epsom salt and again it's working slowly but surely. I hope this helps somebody!
How is he now?
Yes it worked. It took a while but finally it worked. I'm so glad. O hate seeing my baby in pain.
Hey! It’s been a few years lol. How is roque doing?
How long does it take for the infection to do away using this method
The most handsome boy in youtube worlddddd🌎
I believe the black between his toes is a fungus which caused the irritations. Thanks again. Peace.
He's a very good boy. 😜
I will try this with my scottish terrier his seems to have the same problem underneath his paw his got a sore and in between his toes his got this and on the side.
Diatomaceous earth/DE mix in water wld do wonders also..
My dog tends to lick her paws.When I apply the skin soother cream should I cover her paws or allow them to breathe. I’m nervous that she might lick it off. I’m not sure if it’s ok for her to eat.
Please answer for me the salt that you put down outside for the to melt the snow is irritant for pets so how can Epsom salt help alleviate the problem
Hello could you use shea butter
My dog you see in on my profile pic. She is an American bulldog boxer mixed. Her paws are so dry and very red in the Web of the paw. It does look painfull to walk she is two years old and a rescue. Does it matter what kind of Epson salt you use???
Thank you so much for posting this video. My Yorkie has been liking her paws way too much and when I checked her they were red in between and swollen 😥 I don't like to see her suffer at all. I purchased the items just now in Amazon. I'll let you know how her recovery goes.
how did it go for you!
Yh, how did it go?
@luzverdecia how has it worked for you? Did your Yorkie’s paws improve?
Pls let us know
I wish my dog was this chill! I have a jack russell with anxiety and everything else. She wont let me touch her paws either. Shes a dud!🤣
Why don't you use a bigger container and let him stand in the container all four paws, for five minutes and done! By The way, I have found that cornstarch with a little bit of warm water brushed on with an old cosmetic brush has really done the trick.
WILL EPSOM SALT CURE THE TAILS ALSO?? My English bulldog tails is loosing hair
My Bullie paws so red between his toes 🤷🏻♀️Exactly the same of your dog so don’t know what to do so the doctor tell me he have allergies so I do medication baths for him and also natural remedy I boil water with rosemary let cold off to be warm and I covered the paws with warm rosemary water towels dry off and I put little bit Vaseline for moisture... what R you recommend for this problem? I will try with with epsom salt next time and I will buy the soother balm for sure ❤️ I hope you understand my message Thanks so much!!
So sorry to hear your bullie’s toes are really red. Do try the Epsom salt and follow this video steps- I think it will help. Another way is to buy Malaseb shampoo or any shampoo with Chlohexdine ingredient. It helps kills bacteria, fungi and yeast in the toes. Wet the toes and cover with shampoo for 5-10 mins twice a week can also help. Instead of Vaseline or paw soother cream- you can also try hypoallergenic powders on the toes after the toes is dry. Hope this helps and hope your bullie feels better ❤️
Does roquefort loses hair or not
My bulldog gets sore between his toes to I use hibbi scrub it's antifungal and antibacterial 😊
How do I know if my dog is allergic to epsom salt?
What happens if the dog lick his paws after applying Epson salt is not poisonous?
Very informative video but the sometimes the music makes it' difficult to understand what you're saying.
Betadine works great too
Hi, can i use magnesium chloride?
No
It is shame people post nonsense about apple cider vinegar, nooooo it does not work, this lady is correct Epson salts is the way to go
Agreed - ACV can cause dogs pain and discomfort if the skin is at all irritated, open, etc. It doesn't work for all applications unfortunately.
Doesn’t work for yeast infection!
Carpet makes a nice towel 😊 😃 😺 ☺ 😄 😹
No. You need something clean.
Guess not, oh well.
Sorry that the Epsom salt doesn’t work for you. Sometimes it is quite difficult but I hope you find a solution and would love for you to share so I can also give it a try 😊 thanks for watching.
Acv will burn their paws. An cause irritation my vet says no to acv
Yes but will your dog let you do this? Most hate it, causing stress and in turn more break outs. When the grass is wet is the worst time. Though it can be brought on by the slightest diet change for example "good dog have some cheese" "ohh these new treats look healthy" "poor fido is bored, here have a liver treat", and "a dental stick" and we do are the worst culprits for not keeping it simple and only introducing new things gradually. Try putting the dogs regular kibble in your treat bag, as fido doesn't know the difference, extra food is extra food. Dogs eat vomit and poo because they don't know the difference. Also give as much meat as you can afford, it's the grains, potatoes and lentils that mess dogs up. OK my topical cure until the diet is back to simple. In one cup add 1 part apple cider vinegar to 9 parts distilled water and two drops of lavender oil. This will kill fungus and cool the skin without killing good bacteria and the dog won't want to lick it immediately, giving it time to work Internal remedy is licorice root made as a tea to be given at •5mg per 10kg and can be given twice a day. Wait until dog itches, don't use as a preventative as licorice root can be toxic in larger amounts. There's olive leaf tincture or tablet that can be bought on line, and that's for inflamation. The Epson is a salt which is effective for short term relief but still a salt that your dog will lick off.
Stand the dog up in a tub of water
I don't recommend epsom salt, my dog died from licking it.
Cmon. You cranking my chain?? Busting my balls????? Chappin my ass??? Is this true.
:kissthepaw:
My dog has paw issues. I’m looking all over KZhead because the vet just isn’t helping the problem with shots, steroids and antibiotics.
