I think it's called interdigital cyst... Our Joey gets it sometimes, most often if her feet are damp like after a rainy period or if she baths to much or lick her feet. I treat it with Epsom salt and it works super good for us, it usually just takes one or two times of dipping her foot in it and it's gone:) I use quite a lot of Epsom salt in some lukewarm water and just let her foot rest in it for as long as I can manage, probably about a minute or so and then I just dry her foot nicely afterwards. Hope it works for you too:)

That's exactly was I was thinking Petra. Looks like it. @JeannieCO is having this problem with her Sally right now and has a lot of knowledge about them.

That picture of his paw is adorable.

That is an inter-digital cyst, whatever you do, DON'T POP IT! Let her walk around in warm Epsom salts water, dry thoroughly and apply Panalog, or Animax ointment. If she keeps licking, put a sock or bandage over it, and distract her with toys or treats, until it has time to heal.
