I have a question about a growth in my dogs mouth.

July 4th, 2011 | Author:   Print This Post Print This Post

I recently noticed a growth in my daschunds mouth. It coming out of her gums right in front of her bottom front teeth. It is pink and bumpy. It is also about the size of my pinky nail. It doesn’t seem to be bothering her and she eats just like normal. What could this be and what should we do?

    The most common growth would be an epulis, which is benign. The more serious conditions would be a squamous cell carcinoma or a melenoma. This growth should be removed and biopsied.
