These photos were taken on a beach in NW Scotland earlier today.
My estimate of the width of each track is about 2-3 cm. The photo with the "spike" coming out of it is not that clear but the "spike" is coming out of the front of the foot, ie in the direction of travel.
These could be from a dog because there were other obvious dog prints on the beach, but these looked very small and the look of the trail of prints didn't, to me, look quite right.
Grateful for any ideas.

so tried looking for wolf tracks where the animal was trotting and walking... found this image, which compares dog and wolf... it shows when trotting a dog's prints are more evenly spaced out in pairs, but with one behind the other...
