Question

My dog has a little red lump under his dew claw that was bleeding. The bleeding has stopped but not sure whether to go see a vet or not? Pet's info: Dog | Mixed Breed | Male | neutered | 6 years and 7 months old | 40 lbs

I would take Charlie into the vet in the morning. This little red lump could be due to a foreign body, a cyst, or trauma to the area, and in my opinion it should be examined by a vet. It's not an emergency, especially since the bleeding has stopped, and it is fine to wait until the morning to have Charlie examined.
