My Boxer was playing outside in the snow for about an hour yesterday. Today he is licking his paws, especially the front right. There is no visible cut or scrap on it. Could it be frost bite? What should we do?

I would take him to a veterinarian and have a thorough exam done. It is possible that he has a laceration, puncture, splinter or even a fractured toe.
