    Hi all!

    Recently my Lucius has been getting saw feet so I have been keeping them clean and using a tea tree oil spray to calm his red skin. while I was doing this, however , I noticed something on the webbed skin of his paw. It looks to me like a skin tag, its small andlooks like an extra piece of skin on his foot. I thought it was dirt when I first found it because his foot was dirty and tried to clean it off, making it bleed a little. The bleeding stopped quickly and I left it alone, its not got any bigger since I first noticed it however I did notice he has more of these "skin tags" on his lip/jowl area there are two on his lips and one on his paw. I read online that for older dogs this is common but he's 3 years old (he'll be 4 in april) and not what I would consider an old dog. Does anyone else have young dogs with skin tags? Is this normal?
