Default It wasn't a tick! So what was it?!

Well the vet doesn't know. He tried to get it with tweezers, unsuccessful. So he went in there with a lance. He was so surprised Uni just stood there, well she was shaking, but just stood there. He said she was the world's best dog! Well he got it out and it was a weird big growth, about 1/8"x3/16" big! He put it under the microscope and it wasn't an insect, no head, no legs. So we decided to get it biopsied just to be safe, and sent us home with some ointment. So, $190+ dollars later, here we are! So we will find out on Tues, since the holiday coming up.

She also has a tiny one between her shoulders that's been there forever, so depending on what the results come back as, we will know what to do with that other one.

Thank god it wasn't a nasty tick! But hoping it's nothing serious. That thing was big and left a big crater in her skin. Like after you pop a gigantic pimple.
