Red paws

[Reggieinhk]

Hi everyone. I’ve noticed My Frenchie puppy has started to have his paws turn back to pink and also has some red marks which appears to be a sore paw. The other day his paw also started to bleed very slightly. Anyone else encounter a similar issue? He goes on 3 walks a day roughly 15/20 mins each time but doesn’t appear he is hurt

May be too mny walks... my Bulldog drags his paws and rips his nail open to the quick so we trained him to stay on the grass edge when walking, but walks are only once a week due to that. Maybe try doing that -- train to stay on grass edge

I'm thinking the same thing, maybe too many walkies, plus try to walk him on the grass when you can.

Thanks. We live in Hong Kong so his walks are on mostly pavement... will cut his walk to shorter durations and see how he reacts

It may be too much hair under paws causing irritation. (hyperkeratosis)
Try cutting it or shaving under the paws, there's some videos on this website: https://dogs.thefuntimesguide.com/trim_hairy_toes_dog_fur/
