Pink feet

I have a yellow that has pink feet. It used to be just between the pads, but has now progressed to the top part of the foot. Is this something I should be concerned about.

Re: Pink feet

If you're talking about an adult with pink feet, it sounds like a fungus from Spring grasses and rain.

Re: Pink feet

This is an 19 month old. I thought it may just be from lack of hair ( coat blowing time ) as it is just the rear feet that seem to be more noticable.

Re: Pink feet

I think the post re: fungus from the spring rain and grasses, etc, is right on the money. I have a girl who seems to get it when she's been on straw or maybe when the ground has fungus from all the rain. You certainly notice it more on a yellow than you would a black or chocolate. I am taking my girl in tomorrow about it, meantime, I gave her a bath and soaked her feet today.

Hi there, try Gold Bond Medicated Powder...it works wonders. Just keep it away from the sensitive areas on the boys and girls. Plus they tend not to lick it off
