    Pat - No, he's not licking his feet as much, and I guess it looks like they're starting to clear up a little.
    I'm sure I'm just being impatient!
    Thanks!

    If the licking started because of a food allergy it can take quite a while for things to clear up even after removing the offending food. If the licking continues you might want to take him to the vet for something to help with the itching until his system recovers from the food change so he doesn't lick himself into a skin infection in the meantime.

    Looks like we're going to make a trip to the white coats.

    His feet aren't looking any better, but he has stopped licking them. So that's a good thing.
    But yesterday after I gave him his Benadryl he threw the pills up along with stomach bile.
