Back in June, I started licking my paws... not a lot, but I was doing it behind the dogmom's back. You know, when she wasn't around mostly.
Then, I broke a tooth and went to Dr. Kate at Pet Crossing to get it fixed. While I was there, she found a fungus on my paws. She gave dogmom some medicine (ketoconazole) to give me for a month. It was yucky and I actually had to take it for two months. But, it made the yeasties on my paws go away.
Well... a couple of weeks ago, dogmom noticed that I had the dark spots on my toenails again when she was trimming them. Even though I wasn't licking very bad, she recognized that this was a sign that the yeasties were back.

The other sign is that the fur on the bottom of my paws is usually white. (Well, except when I run in the mud at Dog Pad and stuff.)

So... dogmom wants to know if you're paws itch now from reading this?
Wuf Ya!

I feel your pain. I too have itchy paws, but I went overboard on the licking and biting and now I have to wear a stupid cone, be warned!!!

It made my paws itch
You might try EMT, a collagen based gel (it also comes in a spray form) that has worked pretty well for us in what appears to be the same condition.
