My dog keeps licking his paws. Is there anything I can do to help?

Yes, you could try using a desensitization technique called counter-conditioning. This involves associating the behavior with something positive and rewarding it when your dog stops doing it. You can also use distraction techniques such as playing with toys or engaging in interactive games that require them to focus on something else. Additionally, make sure to provide your pup plenty of chew toys to keep their teeth healthy.
