    My chocolate has quite a few lumps.
    One quite large lump in the pit of her front paw.
    She's 9yrs+.
    Our previous (black) pup had similar lumps. She left us at age 13.
    The lump doesn't seem to bother her,.
    Embolization or removal or just let it go?
    Thx!

    Hi Ross, Has your veterinarian taken a look at the lumps, they are definitely the best person to advice on whether any action is required to benefit your dog.

    Has the lump been diagnosed as a lipoma by the vet. They tend to continue to grow so could become problematic on the paw.I would at least get it aspirated to check as labs are prone to other types of lumps too that need to be removed.
