I have a dachshund, 12yrs old, who has had what I affectionately call “Frito Paws” since a puppy. It’s adorable, and a common smell that doxie owners can attest to.
Also to all the “who the hell is sniffing dog paws!? Wtf!”…..I do bc I like being cuddly and goofy with my buddy and sometimes a foot sniffin happens….being together 12 years tends to do that

Reply to TIL Why Dog Paws Smell Like Fritos. Even the cleanest, healthiest pooch has trillions of bacteria and fungi living on their skin. That yeasty, corn chip smell is actually a normal byproduct of harmless bacteria, usually Proteus or Pseudomonas, both of which are naturally present in our environment. by Rossknight65
