Constant paw licking in hot weather often points to irritation from hot pavements, allergens, or even fungal infections. Ensure you're walking your dog during cooler parts of the day, such as early morning or late evening, to protect their paw pads from burns. You can also try dog booties for protection. Rinse their paws after walks to remove potential irritants and dry them thoroughly between the pads. If the licking persists, the paws look inflamed, or develop an odor, a vet visit is recommended to rule out allergies or infection. Speak to Dial A Vet via a video consult should you need further guidance.Clinically Approved Standard by Dial A Vet Veterinary Team
