lump under skin

Hi ,
just noticed yesterday that Henry's got a little baldy patch on his tummy and when I touched it I felt a little lump under his skin . only little lump , aprox the size of a pea . He's 2 years old , I can't see any puncture signs ( he does like a fight ) and he's eating normally and being cheeky little self as usual .
Any ideas what it could be ? He's due for his booster & check up next month

thx

Re: lump under skin

Personally I would just book him in for a quick check up now - better safe than sorry.

Re: lump under skin

Agree. Probably nothing but your vet is the best person to examine it.

Re: lump under skin

I'd ask the vet to have a look at it to be on the safe side.

My mums 10yr old Westie had lumps found when she recently had her coat clipped and it turned out to be very serious.

After that, if he were mine, he'd be at the vet for a check over.
