Stanley’s got some lumps

[Emily_Babbelhund]

Lots of lambies, @Jen - it’s most likely they’re fatty lumps, let’s hope the vet can put your mind at rest and Stan is fit as a fiddle

I second (or third) this. You'll feel so much better once you know for sure they are harmless, so good news that you were able to get an appointment tomorrow.

Lambies for fatty lumps.

Lambies for Stanley and for the lumps being fatty lumps or something else benign.
Hugs for you, because no matter how much reassurance we're given, we all worry when we think our dogs could be poorly
Thinking of you and hoping for good news soon.xxx

How is Stanley @Jen

 

[Jen]

He’s absolutely fine. Just typical Stanley. It’s definitely not bothering him or causing him any discomfort.

Snowie also has lumps and bumps. Tons of warts now. The vet said that dogs that are lucky to get old get lumps and bumps. Anything that looks like cauliflower sprouting out of the skin is harmless—Snowie seems to sprout a new one now every few weeks. It’s a tiny hard warty thing. He also has a couple of subcutaneous lumps on his chest. The vet did a fine needle aspiration and said they were nothing (I think he said they were sebaceous cysts). But he did say to feel the newest one no more than once a month to monitor growth. So of course I’m worried! And of course I feel it more often than once a month!!

I hope Stanley’s are nothing. The chances are they are nothing given how many Labs get benign lumps and bumps. Thinking of you both xxx

Fingers crossed for Stanley today. x

Rourke had his lump needle aspirated, vet thought it all right but slight concern there was some blood in the sample, so has measured it with callipers and will again when we go for his monthly Librela, so try not to worry.

 

[Jen]

The vet doesn’t think they feel like fatty lumps.

They said they’re probably nothing, but they want to remove them and test the margins so he’s going in next week.

My poor baby

I am so sorry @Jen, thinking of you. Best to be safe than sorry though. xx

What a worry. Was there a reason why they didn’t do a fine needle aspiration to check the cells first before operating?

 

[Granca]

More lambies, Jen.

I was thinking the same, but they may just want to be super cautious to ensure the best outcome? Lots of Lambies for Stanley, you'll both feel better once it's done and the worry is gone.
