Hi, Rocky's blister like thingie under his chin turned out to be a benign cyst - the vet drained it. He said it could come back was it was not anything to worry about. I am so relieved. It only cost $70. He also has a sebaceous cyst on his back which was enlarging but which I brought down with warm compresses. He is 14-1/2 and still going strong, despite the loss of his eyesight and hearing. Looks like he will be around for awhile longer!
