lDannyGl 25 Posted June 9, 2015 Report Share Posted June 9, 2015 Hi guys, today I noticed a big lump on my lurcher blus face, it's on the left side of his bottom jaw line it's quite big and hard, he is still eating, drinking and being his normal self it doesn't seem to hurt him if you touch or put pressure on it, has anyone got any idea what it could be?

socks 32,253 Posted June 9, 2015 Report Share Posted June 9, 2015 It could very well be an abscess ... Bet a thick needle and stick it deep in there ... Give it a squeeze and see if any shit comes out ...... Quote Link to post

Welsh_red 4,749 Posted June 9, 2015 Report Share Posted June 9, 2015 im not a expert on dog illnesses but a friend had a abcess on his neck one . Huge thing . He waited and waited before going to the doctor and the gave him a right bollocking saying if it burst it could have been curtains for him . Would assume the same for dogs if it is a abscess . Dont want that gunky stuff floating around inside him if it does rupture and burst 1 Quote Link to post
