Peggy was totally normal on her evening walk but has just limped into the kitchen on 3 legs! Front left paw in the air, had a good look, no obvious wounds, pads look normal, claws fine, checked in between toes thought maybe muscular? No objection to being fiddled with. She'll rest for the evening and if no better then vet tomorrow but........20 minutes later I find her chewing the paw, really knawing in at two middle pads and in between them so am now thinking a foreign body.
If she was equine I'd poultice or human I'd stick a plaster on.....is there anything I can do to encourage a foreign body out? Warm water paw bath?
I'll consult vet if no better tomorrow but I don't like to see her obviously agitated by something, she's not normally a chewer or a particularly wimpy character!
