My puppy has a pink bump near her anus. Should I be concerned?

Question

Hi my 10 wk old lab pup has a small light pink bump at the end of her tail on her butthole... it's hard to distinguish from her anus but it's definitely a little bump. Should we be worried about this? It hasn't seemed to affect her pooping at all! Pet's info: Dog | Mixed Breed Medium (23 - 60lb) | Female | 2 months and 18 days old | 12 lbs

I wouldn't necessarily be worried, as it would be extremely rare for a puppy her age to have a malignant tumor, but I would have Leia seen by a vet for it. It could be a wart or other type of benign tumor, and any lump on a dog is worth a check with the vet. I would have her seen by a vet in the next couple of days.
