Thanks for using Petco Pet Education Center, formerly Petcoach! Overall Lina’s paws look normal. They are a little read between the pads but may pass if she was recently active. If they still look red in 24 hours or she is licking them, you can soak them in an epsom salt bath for 15 minutes. If the redness continues I would have a vet take a closer look. Kisses to Lina!
