Hi there, my dog's 2 large pads have been swollen for about a week now(just the back pads). It bothered her a lot the first day, but the next day she was running around like normal. It is still swollen but only seems to bother her whenI touch them.

As they are improving I’d just give it more time. I recommend less walking, more rest. If they are still sore in a week then I recommend a veterinary exam. Thanks for using Petco Pet Education Center, formerly Petcoach to help you care for your dog.
