Guest AceyGrey Posted September 27, 2012 Share Posted September 27, 2012 Hi guys, Since the day I got Ace, he's had a few what I'd call moles on his tummy. They look pretty much like a human mole. I check these every day for any kind of changes to size, shape or texture that may suggest these are cancerous. I just wondered if these are a common thing? And if anyone else's hounds have these? Thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
schultzlc Posted September 27, 2012 Share Posted September 27, 2012 I know this sounds a bit awkward, but are you positive that they aren't nipples?

Guest bernadette Posted September 27, 2012 Share Posted September 27, 2012 That happened to me... vet had to inform me that those suspicious spots on Vinnies belly were nipples... we had a good laugh. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest AceyGrey Posted September 28, 2012 Share Posted September 28, 2012 Absolutely positive they aren't nipples. Unless nipples now appear in bizarre places like by his private parts. Although that did make me laugh. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest AceyGrey Posted September 28, 2012 Share Posted September 28, 2012 My boys have nipples in the area of their privates. Really?! So they might be nipples. Hmmmmm. I'm going to try and get a picture to show you guys in order to determine if they are nipples. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GeorgeofNE Posted September 28, 2012 Share Posted September 28, 2012 Absolutely positive they aren't nipples. Unless nipples now appear in bizarre places like by his private parts. Although that did make me laugh. George has nipples down by his sheath. You have to remember, they're basically in the same place on males as females, yet on the male, there is other plumbing in the way! Having said that, George has lots of spots, freckles, moles, whatever. I don't worry about them a bit. Unless it starts to bleed or ooze, I wouldn't worry yourself over them.

Thanks Actually, our Sparrow has a darker splotchy skin patch on her abdomen. Never gave melanoma a thought. I will also keep an eye on it.
