Pixels foot, what is this?

shirley c · Posted: Sun May 16, 2010 10:56 am Post subject: Pixels foot, what is this?

Noticed Pixel holding her foot up a wee bit a few times yesterday, meant to look but forgot

but anyway, while sitting on the couch this morning petting her I noticed a red bit on her foot, its weird looking

thought maybe a corn but its maybe something in there cause its really under tension like something
trying to come out, its sore to touch but she is not limping when walking, just holding it up at times

will call the vet tomorrow and get her an appointment but just wondered if anyone seen anything like
it doggy related or person related

As said on Facebook Shirl, looks like a grass seed embedded and swollen to counteract it. Let us know how you get on at Vet

just had luke at the vet about 2 weeks ago with something which looked very similar although lukes didnt appear as big, although that could just be because of the size of his foot compared to pixels. They said it was an intercranial cist. which they reckoned was caused by an in growen hair. The vet burst it and prescribed an antibioltic. only think they burst it in the consultation room as luke was not in any pain with his and was happy for the vet to do this. although the vet said that once they get one they can be prone to getting another.
