Hi everyone. We have a 10 years old girl who is fairly healthy, good blood work results, no known issues. A couple of weeks ago noticed a small bump under her skin next to one of the nipples. Our Vet recommends to take it out and to perform a biopsy. Since she never was spayed, they also recommend to do that at the same time to reduce a risk of cancerous tumors in the future and to help with the recurring UTIs. Our dog is under 5lbs, was never put under for a procedure before. I am not sure what is the right thing to do, any advise would be greatly appreciated. Thanks everyone.
