Pepper's Nose Growth

Sorry for the bad picture, I was trying to get close enough for you to see the growth.

 

This morning I looked at it again and it is rough looking with tiny red marks on it.

 

I have never had a wart, what causes them? Could this be from something he was exposed to while he was a stray?

I think warts in dogs are viral, as they are in people, but I don't have any experience with them. I'd let the vet take a look and hope very much it's nothing to worry about!

Pepper had his vet visit today & he has VD of the nose!! Of course the vet used the real medical term for it & said it is common for male strays to pick this up. He goes in next Tues. to have the growth removed & a biopsy done. It is growing very quickly & looks terrible so I told him to keep his nose to himself. He has gained about 15 lbs since we picked him up but his skin still looks so sore & his fur is very dry.

Pepper has his surgery tomorrow, good thing because he now has 3 warts (1 large and 2 very small) on his nose now. These do not stop him from being a normal large puppy. Right now he is outside playing chase and take the purple bunny away with my other fosters, Holly, Rusty and Hoover.
