I was wondering is frosty paws could trigger skin problems also a dog food, that contains sweet potatoes. My Basset Hound has been hell. Antibiotics and cortisone shorts. We can't figure it out. We also are out of money from vet bills.

It really depends on if there is an ingredient in it that Grendel is allergic to. If you suspect he may be allergic to something in it, or those ingredients, removing the snack from his diet and changing his food to one that doesn't contain sweet potato may help. It can take up to two months to see success from a food change/trial, so giving Grendel some time to heal after switching food is a good idea.
