Red bump on top of ar-oldpaw - YorkieTalk.com Forums

Hey there,

My two-year-old yorkie has a red bump on top of his paw between two of his toes.

He was licking the area a lot, then the bump showed and got very irritated. We put animax on it, and the irritation went away. He is not licking the area anymore, but the bump is still there.

What is it, and is there anything we can do to get rid of it?

Thanks for the help in advance!

I would definitely keep an eye on it or have the vet check it out. I panic over something called a canine lick granuloma. Its like they get obsessed with the licking and the hair falls out and the bump gets all red. Nasty looking thing
