CrazyCresties Posted April 16, 2014 Share Posted April 16, 2014 I received a call from our groomer yesterday asking if I was aware of a lump on Daisy's leg? Daisy has lots of little lumpy cysts which are regularly checked, but this was on the inside of her thigh. It has grown very quickly and I feel awful at not having spotted it earlier, but it wasn't there at her last groom about 5-6 weeks ago. Luckily our groomer is based at our vet, so they had a look yesterday and I am now nervously waiting for the biopsy results, but I don't like how quickly this has emerged and grown Can't catch a break with my guys at the moment! The first photo was taken about 2 months ago, and the second this morning. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mim Posted April 16, 2014 Share Posted April 16, 2014 Oh Daisy! Hopefully it is nothing sinister :) When will you get the biopsy results? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
~Anne~ Posted April 16, 2014 Share Posted April 16, 2014 Fingers crossed it is just a lipoma. Did they do a needles aspirate? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CrazyCresties Posted April 16, 2014 Author Share Posted April 16, 2014 Thanks guys :) I spoke to the vet recently and it's not cancerous The results showed lots of inflammatory cells indicative of a response to a foreign object, so she's going in tomorrow to have it removed now. I'm not sure what type of biopsy it was Anne as the vet spoke to my OH yesterday who doesn't take note of such things :laugh: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Salukifan Posted April 17, 2014 Share Posted April 17, 2014 Must be the season for it. Herbie the Whippet is off to the vet this afternoon. He's had a lump come up on his head overnight. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CrazyCresties Posted April 17, 2014 Author Share Posted April 17, 2014 HW - all the best for Herbie, hope it's nothing serious I dropped Daisy Duke off this morning, she'll have her teeth done at the same time so poor poppet will be feeling a bit sorry for herself later on Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tassie Posted April 17, 2014 Share Posted April 17, 2014 Phew CC - good luck to Daisy for today. Hope Herbie gets a good report, HW. You're right - must be the season - took Miss Kirra in last week as I'd felt a new lump while I was massaging her. Got to the vets - couldn't find it at first - eventually found it - proved to be a cyst - no problem - but I swear it had shrunk between the time I first felt it and when the vet looked for it. Never mind - better safe than sorry. :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Salukifan Posted April 17, 2014 Share Posted April 17, 2014 Lily the Toy Poodle is like a braille dog - covered in lumps. All checked, all no issue. Herbie's has literally come up overnight. I'm thinking abcess or haematoma but at the start of a long public holiday period, I'm not taking chances. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
