    Yesterday my dog was at a friends house playing.. Choc. Lab. We noticed she stopped playing with the other dog... as she was laying we seen something hanging off the bottom of her foot, thought it was mulch. Well looked a little closer and it was the whole black pad peeled back off, on two.. the black pad was hanging by thread and fell off.. No cut, no bleed just peeled off and red, not raw, just red.. Help it's easter and no vet??

    Keep it clean (and she will too I am sure). No sense in wrapping it up, she will only take it off).

    Try bathing her foot in epsom salts as well. If there is any pain it may help relieve it as well as keep it clean.
