Question

My dog has this fluid like lump (it bleeds), but not hard on his front paw. What could this be? Pet's info: Dog | West Highland White Terrier | Male | neutered | 8 years and 9 months old | 20 lbs

It's probably either an infection or a foreign body in the paw, you will need to have it looked at by your vet ASAP, he will probably need a course of antibiotics, if it doesn't help the wound will probably need to be inspected under sedation.
