Dogs pads have a couple blisters

Thanks for reaching out with your concern about your dog's paw pads. Blisters on a dog's pads can occur for several reasons. They might be due to walking on hot surfaces, like asphalt on a sunny day, or from rough terrain causing friction. It's also possible they're a response to allergies or even a mild form of infection or irritation.



To help your pup at home, try to keep their paws clean and dry. You can gently wash the affected pads with lukewarm water and mild, unscented soap. Be sure to dry them thoroughly afterward. Avoid walking your dog on rough or hot surfaces until the blisters heal. You can also apply a cool compress to soothe the area and encourage healing.



Watch for signs of a more serious issue, including increased redness, swelling, discharge, or if your dog is excessively licking or avoiding putting weight on the paw. These could indicate infection or more severe irritation and require professional care.



If the blisters don't improve in a few days or if any worrying signs develop, I’d recommend booking a video consult with one of our vets on Dial A Vet. They can assess your dog's condition and guide you on any additional steps needed.
