Any Ideas What This Is?

6 of one, half dozen of other. Sure wouldn't hurt to have the derm take a look and give you some guidance on what's probably harmless and what needs to be looked at. Joseph gets some little blood blistery things; they periodically fall off and disappear.

Taylorsmom - I've just now read your update. Funnily enough, I'd been wondering why you hadn't updated - don't know how I managed to miss it.

 

Anyway, our vet contacted a dermatologist and oncologist about Sophie's growth. Neither were sure what it was, although the oncologist said it could possibly be Cutaneous Hemangiosarcoma, but both agreed that it should be removed and analysed so that's what we decided to do.

 

However, as in your case, Sophie's scab has fallen off again leaving a tiny scab so we're now undecided whether to have it removed anyway or observe for a while.

 

We're going back to vet again on Monday to try and decide what to do. I didn't mention it in my earlier posts (as it seemed to overcomplicate matters) but Sophie's sister Sunny also has one of these little growths and we may decide to have his removed first.

 

What did you decide to do in the end?
