Hattie has a Lump ;(;(;(

Hattie was at the groomers today to be clipped, when I collected her Sarah said she found a medium sized lump. It's located on the right handside at the end of her rib cage.

I know dogs get lumps, especially older dogs, Hattie is 10 years old.

I am worried sick and in tears. ;(;( x

 

Oh God, think of you and hoping for a positive outcome xx

 

Sorry Hattie has a lump. Hopefully nothing, like you say they do get them.
Unfortunately sounds like a trip to the Vet, and sure the it will be nothing.
Never easy I know. Thinking of you and big hugs and of course a big lick for Hattie from Vanilla

 

Definitely a vet trip tomorrow. I really hope I can get an appointment.

Thank you @Emily and @Sven I appreciate it. xx

Could a Mod please change my title to 'has' as through my watery eyes I missed the 'H' off. Thank you so much. xxx

 

Sorry this has happened but it's good that you've found it while it's small. I had lots if doggie lumps on my dogs its hard but there are lots if things it can be and not all of them are bad.your vet will find out what it is. Whatever happens we're here for you. Try to get some sleep and give Hatti a big hug from me.

 

Keeping my fingers crossed for you & Hattie. Both Belle & Scooby had old dog lumps, nothing sinister but worrisome none the less.

 

I'm sorry you're so worried, Helen. Hopefully the vet will do a needle aspiration and set your mind at ease that it's just a fatty deposit. Brogan had several and they never hurt anything...just made him bumpier.

Hoping all goes well tomorrow.

 

Sorry to hear this. Hope the vet will be able to put your mind at rest.

 

Fingers crossed it's just a fatty lump or a cyst and nothing serious.

Sending lots of love. Sorry you're so worried, must be very stressful

 

Sorry to hear this, keeping my fingers crossed it turns out to be nothing sinister. X

 

Fingers crossed it turns out to be nothing serious. Sending you positive thoughts and hugs x

 

So sorry to hear this about Hattie, Hugs to you both

 

More than likely its harmless Helen, but won't stop you thinking the worst.
Fingers crossed xxx

(typo sorted)

 

I’m very sorry to hear this and keeping my fingers tightly crossed for a good outcome at the vets.

 

Remember that most lumps are nothing.

We had Obi to the vet last week because we found a lump on his head. It turned out to be a harmless little cyst, kind of like an over-ambitious pimple. Nothing to worry about.

Hope all is fine in Hattie’s case too.

 

Sorry to hear, understandable why you are so upset. I’m hoping that it’s just a fatty lump and nothing serious. Will be thinking of you and watching for an update.

 

So sorry to hear. I hope it’s harmless. I’ve seen lots of dogs and humans with lipomas - harmless fatty lumps. Best of luck and thinking of you both.

 

Aah @charlie - sending . Hope it is nothing sinister.

 

Sending hugs Helen , I know the worry, but as others have said , it is most likely a fatty deposit , doesn't stop you from being worried though , wish I could help xxx

 

Hope you can get an appointment today for Hattie and that all is well.
