I wonder, though, if the pads could be related in that Brenin might have been licking them, making them soft & easier to peel? That's GOTTA be painful, though. I remember an ex BF's GSD running his pads bloody while playing fetch one afternoon . Nothing like that had ever happened to Smidgen, or Amber. And when I got Amber her pads were like puppy pads, as if they had never had any contact with anything other than carpet. Now she's got leathery shoe pads .

Would you mind posting the link to the study you've been referring to, if you can find it again? I'd really like to read it. I'd happily cut back on Amber's fish oil but since I haven't seen anything contrary to our current protocol I'm reluctant to scale it back & risk undoing whatever good it's already done.

What I do know is that my little spotted glue hound has become even more glue like since we started this. I never have to worry about forgetting to give her her pills because she will shadow me after each meal until she gets them. Goofball .
