Jay Posted August 22, 2016 Report Share Posted August 22, 2016 Has anyone seen this before? It literally came out of nowhere. I only noticed it when Nikko was licking it for him and saw a huge growth. He was walking fine and doesn't seem to be in pain.

Jay Posted August 22, 2016 Author Report Share Posted August 22, 2016 Like something got stuck in his paw and it's infected? I did see a little pus on the outside of it. It looks a little bigger than it did at lunch time. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jmscott Posted August 23, 2016 Share Posted August 23, 2016 · Hidden Hidden Grass seeds are a common culprit. Link to comment
Jay Posted August 23, 2016 Author Report Share Posted August 23, 2016 Hmmm I don't think he would have came into contact with grass seeds. I put some ointment on it for now and I will take him to the vet tomorrow. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BingBlaze n Skyla Posted August 23, 2016 Report Share Posted August 23, 2016 Bings got a lump on his paw similar but between his toes instead n it was a bug sting but wasn't as big as that he did go vets for some antibiotics tho n it cleared up Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Emma Posted August 23, 2016 Report Share Posted August 23, 2016 Grass seeds are a common culprit. Can they get up through the back? I only knew that they could get into the claw cuticle and sneak on up that way. If it's red and leaking pus then it's definitely got some degree of infection there. Good luck at the vets Jay. Hope he's back to normal soon xxx Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
robke Posted August 23, 2016 Report Share Posted August 23, 2016 grass seeds can get aywhere they are a pain..hope all is ok with Nikko... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rachael_Astro Posted August 23, 2016 Report Share Posted August 23, 2016 I agree with the grass seed theory. Hope he's better soon! Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jay Posted August 23, 2016 Author Report Share Posted August 23, 2016 My post was a little confusing. It's Yukons paw that is sore and Nikko has been licking it constantly. It looks a little better today but I have an appointment tomorrow evening Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jay Posted August 24, 2016 Author Report Share Posted August 24, 2016 I have his paw wrapped up with some antibiotic ointment on it. I'll see how he is in the morning Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
snowpups Posted August 24, 2016 Report Share Posted August 24, 2016 Kobie had something similar it turned out to be extra Calis and had to have his toe removed hopefully it's not the same thing Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jay Posted August 24, 2016 Author Report Share Posted August 24, 2016 Did it show up gradually or all of a sudden? This seemed to appear overnight Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Keeonah Posted August 24, 2016 Report Share Posted August 24, 2016 That looks nasty. Hoping the antibiotic ointment works but if not vets is a must. There are so many things that could have caused this and the possibility of it spreading is quite high so needs nipping in the bud asap. Fingers crossed it is just a grass seed. Gary.

Jay Posted August 24, 2016 Author Report Share Posted August 24, 2016 This is what it looks like today. I have an appointment after work to have them look at it. I see some pus in between his toes too Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PaulG Posted August 24, 2016 Report Share Posted August 24, 2016 grass seed, glass shard, metal fragment are my best guess hope the vets fix it Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jay Posted August 25, 2016 Author Report Share Posted August 25, 2016 Back from the vet. He seems to think it's an infection and nothing looks stuck. Gave him some antibiotics and if it doesn't improve them they may take a biopsy. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
