Is this a normal paw pad?

Rudie's middle two paw pads join together at the bottom. I have never seen this before, both Marley and Walter's pads are all separate.

Is this normal?

It doesn't look normal to me, but if he is walking alright on them without pain, I don't think I'd be concerned.
It's an extra heart!

I think it looks normal.
It isn't typical, it looks like he was just born that way. If it doesn't bother him, I would just leave it alone.
I love the "extra heart"!! :aww:
That will make for unique paw prints/signatures!!! :)
Aw it does look like a heart!

It doesn't bother him, I was just wondering if it was maybe a product of injury/neglect from his previous home.

It looks more like a congenital thing to me. I can't see any scar tissue, just that the toes never seperated. It does make him an extra special boy though.
Get him a stamp pad and let him sign is autograph! That's lovely :hearts:
