That doesn’t quite look like what it is, Patty. It does look like what we thought was a wart on my grandmas dog, though lol

Cheryl, I honestly would not doubt that she had some form of cancer. Sometimes she’ll just sit in one spot and shake miserably, like she’s in pain. She also flips out if you don’t pick her up just right (no hands on her tummy– she’ll bite you for that!). I have to get down next to her with one knee on the floor, pull her against my leg, hand under the chest, and elbow pressed against her hips. It took a long time to get her let me give her tummy rubs, and even still she’s wary about it. Her stomach and shoulders (really bad joints, too) are a big problem for her. So, I wouldn’t doubt if some of her apprehension about having her stomach touched had something to do an internal tumor or something.

Mom doesn’t think we need to see the vet Tuesday, but I’m just worried that it’ll countinue to sit there and fester, at the very least. And if it’s something worse than that, I want to get it removed if she is a candidate for the anesthesia. If there is a way to do it with out anesthesia, I would also like to talk about that with him.
