wagsalot Posted September 21, 2009 Share Posted September 21, 2009 (edited) I saw a lump on Riley's leg on Saturday night. It hasn't changed since then (hasn't got bigger, or smaller). He was running around like a looney on saturday as we got soil and wood chips delivered and he was running through it so its possible he could of knocked his leg. Its on the back of his front leg, and is a bit smaller than a 5 cent piece. Its white, but there is a little spot that looks like there could be a bit of blood underneath. It is extremely hard to get a picture of, but I did the best I could. Saturday night and Sunday I could touch it without him caring less, but tonight he was pulling his leg away a little - but I think this was more him wanted to get up and play since I was sitting on the floor, rather than his leg being sore. Ill take him to the vets on Thursday if its still there, but in the meantime anyone got any ideas? Edited - had a better pic on the other camera - the colour is a bit odd - the lump is actually white - the same as his skin. It also looks lumper in photos than it does in real life where it looks more smooth. Edited September 21, 2009 by wagsalot Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Staff'n'Toller Posted September 21, 2009 Share Posted September 21, 2009 1. Trauma? 2. Wart? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Aziah Posted September 22, 2009 Share Posted September 22, 2009 Is it near the elbow? Could be wear and tear from laying down on rough service such as concrete etc. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wagsalot Posted September 22, 2009 Author Share Posted September 22, 2009 Its not far from his elbow so could be. Ill keep a eye on it and see how it goes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Aziah Posted September 22, 2009 Share Posted September 22, 2009 That's my guess then Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wuffles Posted September 22, 2009 Share Posted September 22, 2009 It does look similar to the marks my dog gets on his elbows if he lies on the concrete a lot. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wagsalot Posted September 25, 2009 Author Share Posted September 25, 2009 Went to the vet yesterday just to get it checked out, and it was a callus. He must be lying on a angle, hence why its not on his actual elbow. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
