    Default Duke has a leg lump, Need advice

    It's just above his dew claw and is about 1/2 inch in diameter. It is soft to the touch, moves easily, and it does not cause any pain when I palpate it. I am use to fatty lumps on his side but this location concerns me a bit. He is due for his annual exam next month. Should I have it checked out now or do you think it could wait?

    I know you love your dogs. If it were HK, she would be in to see the vet. I would be praying for good news, and if received, I would regard the bill as a small price to pay for the peace of mind. If not, then more time to address what was found.

    Good, I'm glad you made the appointment. After Frankie's MCT, I won't wait on any lump.

    I hope it's nothing!!

    I'd do the same thing hopefully it's just another fatty tumor but if not it's best to know early.
