ok so chance has been sleeping a lot today, i thought it was just due to the rain, because it just started raining today, and hardly rains here. well we finally got him to go out, and when he came back in his back paw is swolen in the middle! his middle toe is red and very puffy all the way towards the middle of his paw. i put bactine on it, iced it as long as he would let me, and put a mit on it so he cant get to it. he kept licking it, but he cant put presure on it and it seems to hurt him to even lick it. i can push down on it, but he doesnt yank it from me until i touch toward the nail end of the toe. is this allergy, it could be he got bitten by something? or could he have somehow stubbed it and broken his paw? anyone had an experience like this?
