Found a lump?

[Tasha-xx]

Hi
I have just found lump on my dogs right, back leg. It is about the size of a large marble. I am really worried. It moves a little when i touch it. It doesnt seem to be causing her any pain but i am making an appointment first thing in the morning to get her seen. I was just wondering if any one knew what it could be?

Max had a similar lump on his shoulder, it turned out to be a cyst caused by something getting into the gland at the bottom of the hair. the vet lanced it gave Max an antibiotic shot and everything cleared up, but you are definatly doing the right thing getting it checked out, better safe then sorry

Probably benign but you are right to have it checked out. What breed of dog is she? How old? Some breeds are more prone to tumors, such as boxers. But ours were always given the all clear. Hope everything is ok.
