Hi,
We are recently added a poodle pup from registered breeder to our family, he is a nice pup but I noticed this on his belly.
I rang the breeder and she said it's not hernia but just an awkward belly button! He had all his 3 shots when we got him so haven't been to a vet yet.
The more I look at it, the more it's looking like a hernia, I know it's not a big deal as he is just a pet but the problem is my husband will absolutely Flip Out!!!
We paid a really pretty penny (post Covid prices) for him and it took a lot of convincing to get him to say Yes (even a few massive arguments) . It's going to come down to the breeder's integrity and he will likely take it as the breeder trying to take us for idiots.
So before I raise it with him, can you lovely people look at the picture? Is it normal or how common for poodles to have hernias? Sometimes it's visible in some poses and sometimes its not. It's tiny pea sized. I can feel like it pops back in if pushed back and the pup is not bothered! Or is it really an awkward belly button and I am over thinking it???
Help please.
Thanks in advance!!
