Dogs have seven bones in their front paws and six bones in their rear paws. A dog's wrist bone is called a carpus. The bone below the carpus is called a metacarpus and each toe is called a phalange. Dogs have five phalanges in their front paws but only four phalanges in their rear paws. Dew claws are not considered phalanges.
Yes, the metacarpal bones are distal to the carpal bones in dogs. The carpal bones form the wrist joint, while the metacarpal bones are located in the paw, extending from the wrist to the toes. Thus, the metacarpals are positioned further away from the body compared to the carpals.
