[Ellie May]

Not an emergency...

We noticed probably sometime around Sunday that Ellie had a bruise below her fifth mammary gland on her left (our right) side. It could've been there for much longer, just not sure. The gland itself is a bit darker than all of them too, with the exception of the 5th on her right side (our left) which is quite dark. We noticed this for the first time yesterday. She has had problems around her glands before (lumps) but they went away after spay and it was just a hormonal issue. Are dark glands ever normal? All of it together has me very concerned. Here are a few pics. You are looking at her midline. Then to the left are her 4th and 5th glands (the 5th is obviously dark) and then to the right are her 4th and 5th and you can barely see the bruise below the 5th. Any ideas?
