  You could try spraying bitter spray onto his paws.

  My log licks her paws because of her allergies.  Maybe he has something that you need to have the vet checked out?  I have allergy pills for her but still have to tell her to leave it when her allergies are bad.  Sometimes her paws smell like Doritos/Fritos when the bacteria is a little high.  Do his?

  Nope, no smell. He's not licking them, he is full on gnawing on the nails. He yanks hard enough that the whole foot moves. It is so gross.

  I read that if you do not exercise your dog enough it becomes a nervous habit because their minds aren't being occupied with something else. There are also allergies and separation anxiety. I would ask your vet though, if you do exercise your dog regularly and he doesn't have separation anxiety.

  My Olive does the same thing.  But she only does it when they are starting to get a little long.  Maybe they need to be cut?  I honestly think that Olive does this because she hates getting her nails cut!  She actually needs to be sedated to have it done!

  My dog does that too, but only on his back paws. I think its because like Olive he doesn't like to get his nails trimmed and its his way of avoiding the extra stress.
