Small marble size lump

Hey peeps,

Basically I have a small marble sized lump on Brunos right side just below his rib cage, it's quite squashy,

I noticed it last night, on our evening walk we were in some fields near us with quite long grass with walkways and he was running through the grass and rolling around,

When u touch the lump Bruno doesn't appear to be in any pain or even that it's there,

He doesn't seem to be scratching it or anything,

I was thinking it may be a bite of some sort, I have booked him in the vets next wed to have it checked out but wondered if anyone knows what this lump could be

Thanks

This could well be an insect bite or a sting. Do you have a photo of the lump we could look at ? Right to ask the vet next time you are in.

Rocky had an insect bite/ sting ages ago and he still has a bit of a bump there, this doesn't bother him either. It seem to rise when it is warm weather though and when he has been sitting in the sun ?? We will ask at the vets next time we are in too.

It is tick season, so it could be a bite. Your best bet is to ask the vet, so good for you for booking an appointment.

Could be many things, by next wednesday it most likely will have disappeared

Fingers crossed its sorted at the vets

What color is it ? It it 'under the skin' or 'on the skin' ?

Cheers for the replys,

Yea it's under the skin n it seems the same colour as his skin,

Unfortunately I can't afford to take him to the vets till next week,

I will upload a photo when I get home

I'm hoping it is just a bite n it's gone in a day or two but I will keep an eye on it

Ok so I have woken up to the lump as completely disappeared,

Seems it was just a bite, so I'm happy now

Good news!

Great news

Ah good

Good news! My pooch came home with two lumps the other day, they were gone the next day as well It's quite worrying when youve not experienced them before, i was all up for booking him into the vets as well!

They do worry us, don't they?

Lynda's Kuchar had that happen - but with him it was called 'castration'!

Glad to hear that the other dogs' lumps went away without such drastic measures!
