| Small bump on back of her neck Hi all, I am new to this forum (stumbled upon it while looking for answers). I recently found a small red bump on the back of my sweet 7 year old Ginger's neck. It on the skin, and approximately the size of a BB pellet. It hasn't changed over the past week and does not seem to bother my girl. It also does not seem to extend below the skin from what I can feel. She does not have any history of skin problems (i.e. dandruff/itching), and this bump seemed to just pop up over night. It is right on the collar line. I've attached a couple pictures, I plan to ask the vet about it but I was wondering if anyone out there has any information of any similar experiences. Of course I am worried, scared, and thinking the worst. Thank you for information!! -Lauren and Ginger |

| Looks like a histioma. It is a reaction to an allergy. If they are young they usually go away on their own (Jess's did) but if they are older its better to have it biopsied to be on the safe side according to my vet.. |
