| I don't know what this is...help!! Hey guys, I tried to attach the picture, but I don't know how to resize it so I posted it on my photobucket: http://i21.photobucket.com/albums/b2...Picture001.jpg I saw this on his foot last week however it was tiny and I didn't think anything of it...I just saw him chewing on his foot tonight and realized that it grew 5 times it's size. It looks so painful but I don't know what it is! It's higher than it looks in the picture. I tried cleaning it w/ a bit of hydrogen peroxide but it didn't do much he is still chewing on it. any ideas??? I definitely will take him to the vet tomorrow morning but just wnated to see if there are any ideas on what this might be.

Donating YT 30K Club Member | My first Yorkie, Karma would get those between his toes frequently but it was so long ago I can't remember what they were. Some type of cyst. They had to lance it or something like that. Then he would have to have a bandage on for awhile. I do know he got them seeral times. Good luck and let us know what the vet says/

| Looks like the same thing that used to come up on our pit's feet and elbows. It was from food allergy. Of course, it took a trip to the vet for us to figure that out, but he was allergic to corn, rice & turkey. According to her, recurring skin irritations usually point toward an allergy.

| I just had Penny at the vet today for a similar red spot right next to her nose (I'll post on all that in a minute). The vet is pretty sure it is a histiciocytoma, which is referenced in the link given above. http://www.peteducation.com/article....&articleid=445 |

| I pray that your results come back positive as well as ours! I can deal with a benign growth... He said the same thing as our vet; only way to be certain is through a biopsy to see if it is benign or malignant. Prayers for your baby! |
