My girlfriends dog has developed a lump on the right hand side of its body. The lump is getting bigger.
Does anybody have any ideas what it could be ? i.e a cyst? We are worried because the last dog she had developed cancer. |

Same thing wit my dog and i think its getting bigger too. my dog is female and is about 9 years old and i haven't taken her to the vet yet but i am worried that this could be cancer. i heard somewhere on a old post that this could be as i quote, "fatty tumors" and this could be my dogs prob cause shes also pretty fat and old

its been my experience that in older or "senior" dogs this is common- yes called fatty tumors. they are usually no problem. unless they annoy the dog or cause problems. all dogs that devleop a lump should see a vet asap. i have had several older dogs develop fatties and they live years and years... but also develop more. they are almost always not cancerous.
