🚨New Campaign Alert!🚨
A little lump can mean a lot. Checking your pets for these little lumps and bumps is so important as the sooner you find them, the sooner you can get them checked. Many lumps can look alike on the surface but only a vet can tell you what they might be and whether they need treatment.
A recent story to show the importance of this is dear little Peach. Her owner found a mysterious lump on her chest and decided to get it looked into. Peach is only 5 years old and pets can get a variety of lumps from any age. This particular check up turned out to be a very good decision as sadly this lump in question was a Mast Cell Tumour. These are a common type of skin cancer that tend to affect middle aged dogs and can also be fairly common in certain breeds like Beagles or Boxers. As you can see, Peach is a Golden Retriever so lumps like this can truly affect any dog and can vary from being Low-grade (not very aggressive) to high-grade (very aggressive).
Lucky for Peach and her owners quick planning, we got her in for surgery very soon and further tests after this showed that we had got the full tumour removed! Now Peach is back to living her best life at her owners side, running through fields and getting up to all the mischief young dogs like her should be!
