| Does anyone recognize what this is??? Hello Everyone, This evening when bathing my 16 mo. old Yorkie, Chase, I discovered an inflamed nodule on his cheek, one end of it being the color of dark red blood. Initially I thought I would be pulling out a tick, but there is no body protruding. Ironically this was overlooked this afternoon at the Vet when Chase received his boosters. The Technician did take him from me while I was paying to give him his 6 mo. heartworm injection, so I didn't see where he got it, but that would never be the location correct? Thank you for any help! |

| I would get him back to the vet ASAP as it's most likely an absessed tooth. It could also be something like a sticker in his cheek. Last edited by lillymae; 07-31-2012 at 07:59 PM. |

| Looks like my Scotty's tooth abscess did but could be a hotspot, too, I guess. Picture not too clear. Is there blood or pus around it? Hope you've had a vet opinion by now.
