Yeah I mean it's fine. With my dog I'd say "her paw" rather than "its paw." Apparently I'm the only one. Semantics really.

I think technically speaking 'it' is always grammatically correct, but 'he'/'she' is also okay to use especially for a pet.

Personally I tend to use he/she as well (when I happen to discuss my dog in English, which isn't too common as a non-native speaker)
