Irritable Bowel Syndrome Message Boards | Re: BL , I have a doggy question for you?

I have a 3yr old chocolate lab/australian sheppard,male. He is the sweetest thing, and totally devoted to me. He is having feet problems, cracked and raw pads, around his claws he has some ugly scabby looking mess going on. I have been putting hydrogen peroxide on his feet every night. His claws are all white, and the skin around them is very sensitive. He has kennel with a run, he stays there at night, and on most days spends the day outside. There are three other dogs in this kennel. Right now, I am worried about him and he limps around so badly that sometimes he just gives up and goes on back to lay in the run.

I have been thinking of having David give him an anti biotic injection, or it could be a fungus of some sort, I just don't know. I hate to see this sweet boy suffer.
Do you know what this could be from? How can we heal him?
Thanks for any help you may be able to give me.

Congrats on the new house, it sounds just lovely. Can't wait to see some pics of it.
