Hey Dave
What I do with any fur for tanning is in turn the paws out so they can dry completely. And leave them in the hide out fur In position. I haven't had a tannery complain yet about a hide out pelt. My paws are split down the middle and fleshed out. I've talked to a few taxidermists and they would rather deal with a cut pad then round the outside with the hair. So I cut the pad down the middle and flesh it. If you push the claws out more hide is exposed which can dry. On ioxixed salt works as well.

My opinion is that
