Does this look like a corn?

My 14 year old girl has been overlicking her back foot for a few weeks. She hates us touching her feet but I've just managed to take this picture of her foot. Does it look like a corn?.... I've been Googling! She's not limping, just licks her foot a lot.

What breed is she? Corns are almost exclusively a sighthound issue.

My whippet had one earlier in the year and I ended up opting for the tendon surgery for him.

Oh ok. No she's a mixed breed...1/2 springer

It's between the pads. Looks dry and hard and she doesn't like me touching it.

Any idea what it is?

I am not a medic so this could be way off the mark.

Could it be a papilloma Cyst?

I would get an appointment to check it out with the vet

Hard to say from the photo. It could be a wart.

It's clearly bothering her if she keeps licking it, so vet on Tuesday.
