Hi, thanks for using Petco Pet Education Center, formerly Petcoach! These growths can be common on certain breeds, including labs. They tend to be sebaceous adenomas and are usually benign. She will likely develop more. Sometimes they ooze brown discharge or the dogs will lick them and make them bleeding prompting removal. I hope this helps and I wish Hailey the best!
