dirt under skin Can't Post

i just realised some amusing stuff lately. when i was cutting fur under my doggie's paw, i realised that there's a black spot on d flesh between her 'fingers'. d spot felt hard...like there was some stuff in there. n when i squeezed it (like a pimple!) some black stuff came out which i presumed was dirt. u know, like those dirt in ur nails. however, it does not seem to b bothering her. this is d first time i'm encountering this. anyone with any info on this pls lemme know. thx.

Please check that area more often. If the black spot do not grow big it is ok. If still growing you need to bring him to remove it off.

1 of my silky experience before that why I know. At first it doesn't grow but after few month it grow big untill she walk also pain. At the end cut and remove a big piece of skin and flesh out and it take about 2 week to fully recover. Because after removing that thing the vet can't sew back the skin cause at the leg area there is not much skin. So after the surgery that area will be just open and you can see the flesh & bone insideCrazy that why it take about 2 week of medication and dressing to recover.
