My 13 year old scotish terrier has those too. Cancer usually isn't squishy so you probably don't have to worry about that. I'd show it to the vet at her next appointment or if your dog seems to show any symptoms such as pain, unusual slowness, low energy, or decreased appetite you should take her to the vet sooner. ]
We have a golden that has lumps they are just fatty tissue if you bring her to the vet the will be able to tell you if it is caner or not. (they take some of the stuff inside out with a needle and they will be able to tell). ]
I have a shih tzu as well and he too has the bump on his belly. It's totally normal, nothing to worry about. It's an umbilical hernia, caused from cutting the unbilical cord too short. It means nothing and she's fine. No Worries. Good Luck! ]
My moms a vet and my dog also has a squishy bump on her belly. Usually in dogs they are fatty tumors that are not harmful and sometime dogs can have many of them, but you should have her checked no matter what. Don't stress about it though, they are very common. If you happen to have a cat however and they have one, they are usually cancerous and need to be checked immeadiately. ]
it could be a tumor, but then again it could something as little as an ingrown hair, which is harmless. ultimately i would suggest you take your dog to a vet just to be on the safe side ]
it could be a tumor. I have a daschound mix and she has developed a lot of them. they're tumor but fixable if you take care of them quickly. don't worry to much until you get a vets opinion ]
