small hard white bump on paw?

tiller280nwt · 04-08-2009, 06:09 PM

I was wondering if anyone has any info about this thing that has appeared on maggies paw. Its very small (1/4"), and is a hard white bump. It doesn't seem to be bothering her at all. Kinda looks like a whitehead but its harder. Its located just behind the pad of the underside of one of her toes. We are currently waiting to see if it gets bigger or goes away before we take her in.
Heres a pic.

Does it make your dog itchy? Could be a pimple, or a tumor. Tumor however is not itchy.

Maybe got something in there like a thorn? You could try soaking the foot in a warm epsom salt bath. Sometimes that'll help loosen things up if they're stuck under the skin.

This is what it looks like to my dog on his paw I discovered this morning. If you don't mind me asking, what are the small white bumps??? Did you take her to te vet?
