Small dogs (in my experience, I have a 13+ year old small dog) will start to compulsively lick their paws, sometimes it’s neurological, sometimes it’s allergies. I have tried just about everything I could think of, socks, bitter spray, changing my floor cleaner, everything but getting her tested for allergies. She’s done it pretty much the entire time my family has had her, so I’ll feel real dumb if it turns out to be allergies, assuming my family didn’t test her before I had to start taking care of her
Side tangent, I didn’t know you could get at home allergy tests, are those any good?

I wouldn’t yell, but do ask them to stop. They can lick so much they have raw skin and hurt themselves. And also sometimes the sound of licking will drive me batshit
