Question

Sudden bump on top of dogs head. Pet's info: Dog | Blue Heeler | Male | unneutered | 8 months and 24 days old | 35 lbs

Rebecca, DVM · Accepted Answer

A bump can be any number of things from an insect bite to infection/abscess, cyst or adnormal growth. If it is growing rapidly, is painful or changes in color or size quickly I would have Skookum checked by a vet.
