What did your vet tell you he was giving the antibiotics for?
Get your dog to another vet for a second opinion. Whatever is going on is serious. Cracking skin on the nose and paw pads can be an autoimmune disease. But that usually affects older dogs.
Your puppy may have gotten into something, but you need to be more assertive about getting your puppy help.
pets question and answers,www.5d2d.com I would suggest a referral to a Veterinary Internal Medicine specialist.
I was always told that it can depend on the climate and sometimes you may have to put socks on your dog's feet, especially while their infected. I would also pay close attention to see if he is constantly licking which can take the paws longer to heal.
Put socks on him.If you dont his feet can get infected from bacteria on the floor, grass etc.
