My dog's black lump is growing and bleeding. Should I worry?

Question

My dog has a black mole on his back which has got bigger in a few months and it’s bleeding now. Pet's info: Dog | Pit Bull Terrier | Male | neutered | 7 years and 6 months old | 40 lbs

Its still possible that the mass is benign but with the change in size and now the irritation, I would recommend to have it checked out. The doctor may recommend to aspirate it or may just want to remove it. Make sure to keep it clean and make sure that Jake is not able to scratch at it. I hope this helps!
