Anybody know what this on base of dog's claw?

[yougotanology]

Will take ddog to vets tomorrow but there's this smallish, sore lump with bleeds if you knock it. It seems to be very much attached to claw/foot but I wondered if it is an embedded grass seed?

It's pale from the side.

Both of my Yorkies have gotten grass seeds/foxtails in their paws before and it didn't look like that at all.

Ok, so not a seed - any other ideas.

Is it a tick?

[yougotanology]

Possibly - but it looks like more it's a part of her/her skin than something stuck in it - there's no 'join' or entry point as you'd imagine with something buried in?

Vet trip👌

I did - it's a wart....

Got some anti-inflammatory tablets and she seems less bothered by it.

I think it's shrunk already.
