Dog with no nails or a cat?





At first I thought I was seeing big cats prints (which would be pretty cool and un-expected for the area) but upon closer inspection the toes seem sorta cramped to be a cats paw, and its missing that third hump in the back pad.. I could also be seeing two sets of tracks here - there were a few dogs running around off leash in this small park.

Wondering what you guys think
 
If you notice the center swell, it's entirely dog-like. The tracks are a mess due to the mud, but it's a dog I'm sure. I've seen track Bobcat before, and their tracks have a different swell as does that of a mtn.lion (I call the pad a swell). Dog tracks don't always leave a claw print, and sometimes they tend to chew on their claws (my dogs do for some odd reason). :-) Good find. I enjoyed the pictures.
