Dog just snapped at me - lumps in neck

4 replies

My dog appears to have bilateral lumps in her neck - one side is slightly bigger than the other. I’d say they’re around 2 inches big - soft and squidgy - inbetween ear and jaw. I’ve got her booked into vets but in the meantime I was just feeling for them and she snapped at me which is out of character for her - so they’re tender too?

Other symptoms - drinking more (she’ll polish off a full bowl of water in one go) - weeing more (which I suppose goes hand in hand with drinking more but on a walk she’ll have a wee then have another one 5 minutes later?!)

Runny nose (just water coming out), slightly less energy than normal but still hyper as far as normal dogs go … just slightly less hyper then she was.

shes 3 years old. Any ideas??

is she panting more as this can be a sign of pain, although dogs are good at hiding it. When is the appointment, think if not today / tomorrow morning then you should consider getting a emergency appointment.

Not panting but she’s tiring quickly on walks (and then panting) and she’s groaning a fair bit, especially when relaxing/lying down.

Shes an energetic breed but is tiring after 30 minutes walking

Sounds like it cooks be diabetic/pancreatic.
