My dogs had a lump near his back leg which has been progressively getting bigger and harder since January. Everyone said 'it's fine,' so I left it thinking I was just worrying too much.
A couple weeks back I thought enough was enough and booked him in. After a whole hoo-haa with sending emails, having phone calls and then eventually being seen I've been told it's not a cyst or ingrown hairs.
They asked if I wanted them to do a biopsy today or to book in for a operation to have it removed. I have opted to just have it removed and then sent away for investigation. My thinking is it will probably save a lot of time and worry just in case it is something bad.
I've told a few people and they've immediately asked why I didn't just go for biopsy. I suppose it's because I feel guilty for not going with my gut sooner!
If money was no object, what would you do in my position? He's 6 years old and never any problems with lumps before..
