Ikr! I'm over here jumping for joy at coming across this video. 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! I was really happy to see natural medicine being used to treat it. Very good info on the cause and the nettle recipe. Ty very much.

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.

Im waiting for an answer before I do this
My chi had a bacterial overgrowth in between her paw fingers. She liked the paw and bit into it. It was all red. I tried all natural methods which made the condition worth and the lost time… I ended up at the vet, she was prescribed an Animax® Ointment which healed her condition in 4 days. I love holistic approach but unfortunately those methods are quite weak. Wishing all pets health and happiness! And humans as well. ❤❤🇺🇦🇺🇦🙏🙏
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.
So the tincture licorice root is by mouth?
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

Dr. Jones, I recently discovered your channel and am grateful for your courage and conviction to step away from the vet field and not give into the bullies behind the scene. I learned the hard way through the death of my beloved dog Diamond that the veterinary industry is full of lies and go out of their way to lead the public to believe all it promotes about how they care for the health and well-being of our animals. Homeopathic/natural medicine and treatment is the way to go! Keep spewing the much needed information and continue to keep waking up the masses. Thank you!

I completely agree! It’s all about the mighty green, not about the animals. I have two Dobermans, that I love as if they were my children. I’m so glad I found your channel. I’m starting to make all the food for them, we’re in the transition period now. We’re right at half and half. The crock pot makes life so easy and freezing the portions in glass containers with good lids, so I can cook once a week or every other week. I’ve not ventured into cooking for a month yet. Although I have plenty of freezer space. Now I’m collecting all the oils, teas and learning to make salve. My medicine garden this year will be very planned out, then I can harvest and dry different plants we all could Benefit from. Its a dying art. God has given us all we need to stay alive and to flourish. Trust it and use what is being taught. 6:19

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.
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.

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.

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.

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
I love Tula ❤️
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. I gave him Benadryl every day, added cold pressed hemp oil in his food and topically on the tumor. After a few weeks, it closed up and healed. I was SO thankful. I’ll be watching your videos all the time now. 💚

Thank u so much for this video. I kid you not as I was watchn your video I glanced over at my dog and of course she is licking her paws. But now I know how to help her😊
Love how the dog licks his hand again and again.❤
Thank you for the video! Four out of seven vets said it would be ok to put your dog down… but no diagnosis. He’s a amazing Havanese ! I’ve seen jaundice, leathagic and vision loss and more . Loss of appetite. Bloting . Yeah but 8 months this dog improves to 70 to 75 percent! He won’t quit we won’t quit!

I hope I would have know about this extraordinary doctor , before we lost our dearest boy Apollo, only 3 yrs. The antibiotics, fleas medication, and the vaccines, I believe contributed in developing the colon cancer . Thank you , for all the natural remedies you share as an alternative.
Hi, thank you Dr. Jones for all your kind, care help for us pet owners who are low I come. You prevent us from having to put our pets down due to lack of funds. You save lives each n every day !! I love you. God loves you. Our Hero !!!
What I very much like about this man is his willingness to use harmless natural products and not automatically reach for expensive things made of chemicals that have their own side effects. My own doctor could do with learning from him.
Seems you are a fly on the wall in my house!!!! My Bichon has been licking her paws just this week, on the case now, thank you so much. It's great to have you to help Doc.

All of Dr Jones' videos are so helpful! He gives me info and advice WAY beyond what my natural vet offers. This video is the one I needed the most. Three visits to my natural vet left me with no advice except " she's probably allergic to chicken and/or salmon. The nearest natural vet is 170 miles RT. Why bother? Dr Jones, you are a Blessing x10! THANK YOU! THANK YOU!
My dog is allergic to everything. We did a test. But our new groomer scrubbed her paws and she didn't lick for a whole day after that! A miracle. Pretty sure its dust mites for my dog.

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.
Thank you for the natural helpful information ! I enjoy your shows 🙂
