But nail biting for dogs is not typically a habit-like or anxiety associated behavior.

It is usually a sign of a more physical illness.

Inhalant allergies, also known as Atopy (like hay fever for humans) are the number one cause of repeated paw licking, nail biting and itching of the skin, especially the feet and toes.
