Lump

[dragondawg]

My golden retriever, Grace is only 7 and has a bump on her back, near the base of her tail. Does anyone know what this could be? It feels strange...and it is only that one bump...It's not like attatched to her muscle and when you pet her, it moves under your hand...I'm worried about this and I hope it's not cancer...

Could be a cyst, or fatty tumor. But all lumps on a dog should be checked and when in doubt needle aspirated by the Vet for a Pathology lab. It's better to be safe and have it checked.

Thanks both of you. I will get her checked out son to be sure it is nothing serious, and you can't really see the lump, so it would be pointless to take a picture...but I appreciate the inputs!
