So I noticed today that Pharaoh has been licking his foot quite a bit. I took a look and saw this on one of his toes.

Does anyone know what it is and how to get rid of it? I don’t want to make any decision when I’m unsure.
He walks on it just fine. I seriously would have never caught it if I hadn’t noticed he’d been licking it so much.
Also sorry about the pic quality. It’s super hard trying to get a toe pic of a puppy lol

it’s a hot spot if it isn’t a lump, but just a patch of irritated skin and no fur.
my past dog used to get these a lot and they went away after time. best thing to do is just keep him from further licking it (if it is indeed a hot spot)
Thank you! I talked to a vet and she recommended that I get bitter spray to put on his foot so he’ll stop licking it.
If hes llicking it then it's an irritation, so pup should definitely be taken to the vet

She said it’s most likely an allergy situation
My dog Lola has this. She had two and we took her to the vet and they said they wanted to check them so they removed them and took them for testing. Not sure what they are. But fatty lumps are normal. They’re lipomas. They’re common in middle aged dogs. Not sure about that. Lolas got another one on her paw too. She’s a 7 year old cockerpoo
How old is he? I’ve only seen that in older dogs

He is about 9 or 10 months old.
