Pet's info: Dog | French Bulldog | Female | spayed | 10 months and 14 days old | 7 lbs

Hello, my French bulldog is 10 months old and yesterday I just noticed a little bump under her fur. It's a small bump near her upper right side. It doesn't hurt her at all. It feels solid. The lump appeared out of nowhere, it's about the size of half a dime, and her behavior and energy level has not changed at all. She's still very energetic dog.

Such a small, solid and not painful skin lumps are often seen in puppies and young dogs. Stella may have a local skin infection, post-sting or bite reaction or allergy but it is impossible to know what it is without seeing and examining your dog. I would recommed you to take Stella to your vet for clinical examination and to make sure that the lump is not going to cause any problems to her.
