Could be a fungal infection or he may just have smelly feet!
However, I would change from Baker's - it's full of additives & your partner's dog may have developed an allergic reaction.
I favour raw feeding, but it isn't for everyone.

My personal opinion is that Bakers is the devils food and I would rather my dogs missed a meal than ate it! Its so many colours and preservatives and nasties in it :-(

Dont kill me for this, but on a few occasions i have used bakers, not good. She slows down and her toilet habbits can be smelt from a mile away.

Food Types
At the moment, our 2 dogs are still on puppy food (Burns), but the Vet has advised us to go on to Chappie when they are older.

Chappie? Any idea why?
I'm not running it down particularly, but it isn't the best around & vets are normally trying to promote their own stock!

Bakers is quite expensive though (compared to other supermarket stuff) but I have seen it mentioned here before.
Were still working out a non-allergic diet for sasha but I really dont want to go the dry food way completely...like eating potatoes with no gravy or chips without salt  Does anyone mix a small amount of dog food in with the dry food (I add half can and few gravy biscuits or slice fresh meat etc)

Yep i add half a tin of meat to Max's complete food, just enough to give it a slight coating.
