He seems to have this red boil like scab on top of his left paw.
It sounds like your dog has a red boil-like scab on their paw, which could be caused by a few different things, such as an insect bite, an allergic reaction, or a minor infection. To help your dog, you can start by gently cleaning the affected area with mild soap and water to remove any dirt or debris, and then pat it dry with a clean towel.
It's important to monitor the scab for any changes in size, color, or if it becomes more painful for your dog. Additionally, try to prevent your dog from licking or scratching the area, as this could lead to further irritation or infection. An Elizabethan collar might be helpful in this situation.
If the area appears irritated, you can apply a pet-safe antiseptic ointment, ensuring it's suitable for dogs and following the instructions on the label. Keep an eye out for other symptoms such as swelling, pus, or signs that your dog is in pain. If you notice any of these, it would be wise to consult a veterinarian.
Should the condition not improve in a few days or if it worsens, seeking veterinary advice is recommended to rule out any underlying issues. If you have any further questions, please feel free to ask. Thank you.
