My dog has sore lips and feet?

The vet says he is probably allergic to something but doesn't know what. Any ideas? Poor fella also probably has nasal worms and is feeling very sorry for himself so any help would be great. Thanks.My dog has sore lips and feet?
If he has an allergy piriton usually works, it's an antihistamine. My Yorkie has a skin allergy and I feed him James Well beloved complete dog food, it is designed specifically for dogs who have allergies, but initially I gave him the antihistamine to clear up the problem.My dog has sore lips and feet?
get a second opinion on all diagnosis' you have recieved. FYI-dogs don't feel sorry for themselves. Good luck
My dog used to have allergic we think to the grass combined with heat. We changed his diet and also shampoo and conditioner to alovera and oatmeal. No reactions since.
may not be connected but my dog had sore ears , feet and mouth, found out she was alergic to tripe which was in her dog food...


hope you sort his problem soon , i know it can be worrying ..good luck
vasaline for lips and a pair of slippers
STOP STANDING ON HIS FEET WHEN YA KISS HIM!
just an idea but mine had a contact allergy to grass and this only flares up when outside for long periods. after a while being on antibiotics he then had normal Piriton allergy tablets that we use, one once a day, and it soon cleared up. Also, my dog's nose gets all sore and dried up due to having the central heating on all the time and not having much fresh air. we discovered this after days of trying everything else out and again, it soon cleared up, also Vaseline helps this and is totally okay for them.
i couldnt possible comment on what could be wrong with your dog without maybe seeing him. all i can say is put sudocreme on his paws and mouth. it is a god send when it comes to sore bits. another idea could be to go to another vet and ask for a steroid based cream and a second opinion, maybe ask them to take some skin scrapes from the affected areas and ask for them to be sent off for analysis to see exactly whats wrong. Its not cheap, but not really expensive either, and if it saves your pet some major discomfort its worth it! hope he gets better soon!
Change his food to something that's specifically for allergies. If this just came on, see if you changed shampoos or detergents.





Nasal worms? Never heard of that. They can GET worms from sniffing feces that contains worm eggs. A wormer from your local pet store might not be a bad idea ';Evict'; is a good one.





What breed? Age?
I can understand ur prob,mine has allergies too..after i took him to d vet few days ago..i tink he's allergic to rawhide or d food.I usually give him canned dog food mixed wid biscuits but d vet said my dog cud be allergic to d food ( its beef %26amp; chic ).So now he's on anti biotic for 2weeks.He has this lil lumps on d skin n dandruff n he itches most of d time.But after i switch him to ';Lamb %26amp; rice '; looks like he's much better.Mayb u shud try feedin ur dog nother type of food that doesnt contain any beef /chic/corn/yeast/soy ?I guess some dogs r like humans..they have allergies like is too. Hope ur dog gets better!Take him to d vet if it doesnt get any better? Good luck!
