    I think its great that Nature has provided dogs with Carpal Pads on their front legs, above the paw and on the back of the leg.

    THE CANINE FOOT:

    The Sole is called the Metacarpal Pad.

    The pad up and behind the foot is the Carpal Pad.

    The toes are the Digital Pads.

    The Dew Claw is the lateral claw by the man's thumb.

    That's the cleanest paw I have ever seen. :D

    Factoid: My little Harry's paws smelled like Fritos.
