| Found a lump, advice please I found a lump on my dogs back, its near his butt on the right side, above his hip. He's only 1 year old, and I don't remember feeling anything there before. Its about the size of a half dollar, and at that size I think I would have noticed if its been there for a while. Its under the skin and does not feel very hard but not like liquid either. He has not had any shots lately, but he does rough-house with some other dogs around the neighborhood. I actually noticed it after he was playing with my neighbors Chihuahua. He shows no sign of pain, but I am worried. Any advice or experience with this would be great. Thanks in advance. |

| First, welcome to YT! I really don't know what that bump could be. I would just encourage you to take him into the vet if it doesn't go away in a few days or he develops other symptoms. Unless it could be from a flea bite? Then, you might want to go in right away. Hopefully, someone else will be more help.

| Second Judy of Waco's advice.......have a vet check it out, especially since there's been not vaccination.
