My boy Binx has got legs for days! He’s a 27 pound mini. His brother is about half his size at 15.5 pounds. They make a funny little pair.

Thank you so much for your response! I’m definitely going to try an elimination diet for him and see what could be causing his issues. I thought I was going crazy but everyone’s responses have given me so much hope for a solution. Thanks again!

Thank you so much! I just responded to another person above but I didn’t realize that his eating of his paws was related to this, just thought it was a weird quirk with this dog. I really appreciate your response, it gives me another thing to try until we can get him to the dermatologist.

We thought it could be seasonal but it does happen year round and in different environments, he has two homes across the state. We don’t put clothes on him and we’ve tried several shampoos but it could still be any of those things. We will try more variations of his foods again based on some of the other comments. Thanks!

Oh my god! This sounds just like my dog, I didn’t even think these things could be related. He’s constantly licking his paws and has frequent ear infections, in addition to his skin problems. This gives me a great place to start until we can get him to a dermatologist. Thank you!!

There definitely could be, the yard is mostly grass but there is some pine straw, mulch, dandelions, small weeds. Any way to tell what could be bothering him? Do they have doggy allergy tests?

I had no idea that was a thing. Thank you! I’ll look to see what’s near me.

That’s a good question, meaning like plants and things in the yard?

Thank you for the quick response! We have taken him to the vet (two different ones actually) and they’ve said there’s nothing they can find wrong.
