My dog has a white bump on his penis. Vet says okay, but I'm worried.

Pet's info: Dog | Alaskan Malamute | Male | neutered | 3 years and 9 months old | 90 lbs

Hi, I have a husky malamute mix, just shy of 4 years old. He has a white bump on the top of his penis, it has been there for about 8 months, when I initially noticed it, I took him to the vet and they assured me that it was just a discoloration, and there was nothing to worry about. My dog has no issues with it whatsoever, no licking or problems peeing, but I'd like a second opinion. I have pictures if needed. Thanks

As long as the white bump hasn't changed and it doesn't bother Frank then it's nothing to be overly concerned about. I'm glad you had it examined to be sure and I agree with your veterinarian. It's good to keep an eye on it to make sure it stays the same. Thanks for using Petco Pet Education Center, formerly Petcoach to help you care for Frank.
