I found a lump on Josie's neck...I'm calling the vet to see if I can get the vet to have a quick look today..but, I'm not sure if it's my imagenation, or if it actually is something bad. It's not exactly small, but it's hard to find too (like, not coming out a lot if you just pat her) It's almost like you can put your fingers around it when you feel it, and it moves around a little so it can't be a bone...-sigh- I didn't sleep last night cause I was worried...sorry for the pointless thread, I'm just worried about my baby

It sounds just like a cyst, a fatty lump. A lot of older dogs get them.

Although i'm almost positive it's just a cyst, good thoughts coming your way anyhow.

I hope Josie is ok Audrey! Kay is right, it does sound like a harmless cyst. Let us know what the vet says!
