| Please help I am new to this community. My Yorkie is named and just turned 3 I'm December. My husband was just rubbing Gizmo just now and found a worm like mass under her skin on her under carriage near her armpit and breast. This has me worried. If any of you had experienced this, please let me know |

| I would go straight to a vet. Years ago, I had a pom mix that had a weird mass under his skin near his chest. It turned out to be an air sac caused a punctured lung. There's no way for you to know what it is without having a vet check her out. Hoping it all goes well for you. Please let us know what you find out.

| Swollen lymph nodes are another possibility: Lymph Node Inflammation (Lymphadenopathy) in Dogs | petMD Definitely best to check with a vet. Please give an update after you've seen the vet! |

| How is your baby doing? Not sure this is applicable at all… but, is she spayed? I got Rylee at 10 months and had her spayed at 1 year (oldest unspayed female I’ve had). It was probably a week after her spay that I noticed a smallish “mass” on her rib-cage, near a nipple. I took her to the vet that day and the vet said it was just an enlarged mammary glad that would go down since she was spayed, which it did within a couple weeks. |
