I would recommend to take Casey into the vet to have the mass aspirated. In general most skin tumors are benign but there's always a chance its something more concerning. I would also be a little more worried as the mass is hard. Unfortunately, there's no way to tell with the naked eye if its benign or not. Aspiration is an easy test that will generally give you an idea of whats going on. Best of luck!
