Dermatology
Pododermatitis in the dog can present as interdigital inflammation, involvement of the paw pads or claw disease. Each of those presentations has its own set of differential diagnoses and diagnostic approaches, and of course also different therapeutic approaches depending on the cause of disease. In this lecture, we will discuss the approach to each of the three presentations, the most common causes and their diagnosis and treatment.
