Skin Growth Under Dog's Chin
by Susan N.
(San Bruno, CA)
We just found a skin growth that is on our dog's jaw (see photos).. It's on the left side of her jaw, underneath her mouth, about an inch down from the corner of her mouth. It is raised and protrudes outward (I felt inside her mouth and it doesn't feel like there is anything pushing in that way).
Now that we think about it we realize she has been itching at it - with her scratching at it with her paw and dragging the side of her face across the carpet and bumping against the furniture.
Thank you very much for any insight into what this could be.
