QuestionMy lab is 8 years old and has a red bump that is on the front right paw. she has had this for about a week and keeps licking it. She is eat playing and seems healthy other than the red bump. I can squeeze it. Could you tell me what this could be?
AnswerIt could be something we call a lick granuloma. Some dogs will just lick one spot because it feels so good to lick it. This is an obsessive/compulsive disorder and is often treated with Prozac. You should have your vet check it to see what it might be.
